I have always loved loved loved the Grateful Dead, and I was DYING to go to the show. Long story short, I never got tickets, they were totally sold out and so expensive. Mary-Frances's husband tutors for a lot of wealthy families and one mom invited him to attend and gave him two tickets: Mary-Frances told him to invite me. WOW what a night. It was totally different then 20 years ago when I was seeing the Dead. It was strange to not be with the people, and to be the MOST excited person of the 20 people in the suite but I had a great time. It was so awesome to be there.
Joe Maddon - Manager of the Chicago Cubs was in the box next to us!

A Dessert cart came around and I HAD to get this cookie!
Inside the box seats. Free food and booze too. I did not fit in very well, but everyone was so nice.
In the box seat entrance. It was really cool. I felt like I stood out like a sore thumb though.
Party bus from Oak Brook to Soldier Field. I was definitely out of my element with all these folks.
