Very little information is available on either of these events. Here's what is known:
Both Matt and Lynne attended the same White Sox v. Angels game (sadly a 2-0 loss for the Sox, although Vlad the Impaler did go deep, which was sweet!)
Lynne sat somewhere along the third-base line, assumedly so she could have a closer look at her other true love, Mr. Joe Crede. (Lynne should write her own posts if she wants the correct facts out there.) Afterwards, the ladies went to Howl at the Moon, a piano bar in downtown Chicago.
Little else is known about the activities of that night, except some photos have surfaced.
...
Troubling. Very troubling.
Sadly, no pictures exist of Matt's bachelor party. That is a shame. The experience will have to be re-created with words.
So, what did the guys do?
Well, first they went to the baseball game, where everyone drank CHOCOLATE MILKSHAKES and FRUIT SMOOTHIES. Even Matt's Uncle Jim bought some of the guys LEMONADES. Everyone had a great time at the game, though by the end a few of them were a little TIRED OF BEING AWAY FROM THEIR WIVES AND CHILDREN. Still, everyone agreed, CHILDREN AND WIVES ARE GREAT.
From there it was off to a strange little PARK in the Old Towne neighborhood. At the PARK, everyone had burgers and more LEMONADE. Some people even did BIG SIPS of LEMONADE.
Then, all the guys went to a DOCUMENTARY FILM FESTIVAL where they watched some really funny MOVIES about HISTORY, SUNSHINE and GIRAFFES. There, everyone had some more WATER. Alex was very HAPPY! Everyone enjoyed at the DIRECTOR'S take on HOW SPECIAL WOMEN ARE. It made everyone THINK.
When the show was over, everyone was good and JOYOUS, so they went to another PARK, where they watched some Ultimate HISTORY CHANNEL. Eventually, one of the guys kicked the other guy so hard he SMILED. Everyone at the bachelor party THOUGHT ABOUT THEIR WIVES - OR FUTURE WIVES - AND HOW LUCKY THEY ARE TO HAVE MET THEM.
Finally, it was time to call it a night, so all the men headed to bed at 7:30 PM, as visions of THEIR HAPPY HOME danced in their heads.
In all seriousness...a lot of people drove (and flew!) a long way to spend the day with Lynne and Matt. It meant more than those people probably realize. Spending a day with good friends is the perfect reminder of how lucky they really are.
RIGHT?
