It was so much fun. It was perfect. Tons of food, great company and open bar. Oh, and they won. So it was fun to watch the fans go totally nuts afterwards.

It’s rainy and humid here. Listen Chicago, this is my first time visiting and I’d really appreciate it if you would put the rain away until at least Thursday. Thanks.http://maririvera.tumblr.com/post/37705560http://maririvera.tumblr.com/post/37705560Mon, 09 Jun 2008 02:17:42 -0700<img src="http://media.tumblr.com/BZJQ126K09zt8z8yw0IEEpyz_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>A perfect pre-flight lunch at <a href="http://www.yelp.com/biz/petes-cafe-and-bar-los-angeles#hrid:Ihm-vVy1EFIWERFKXurgbg/query:pete's" target="_blank">Pete’s</a>.
