Good question....McGonigals is on Cook st. near the train station.....there are a couple of parking lots that are free from 5pm on and free on Saturday and Sunday...Also lot of street parking.....anyone else have any experience in the area??? Here is the Village of Barrington site. https://www.barrington-il.gov/barringto ... /index.php Hope to see you there.....got this going cuz when I watch the games at home ....on the laptop....I cant watch cuz I get toooooo anxious.....might check early.....then wait till ...sometimes next morning to check score.....but if I watch with a group....no problem....hopefully if we get some interested people we can see if they can get ESPN3 on a large screen...for more games. Should be a good game Tuesday. |

Ha Ha! I thought I was the only nut job who was too on edge to listen to away games! What I usually do is sneak a peak at the score every few minutes, especially if the game is close or the Ramblers are behind. I tend to steel my courage late in the game and begin to monitor it in real time with about 5 minutes left to play. |

I record the games and start watching the recording from the tipoff, sometime near halftime in real time. I fast forward through the commercials, and eventually catch up to the live game, which I then watch to the end. If it is only a stream on the computer, I try to watch it live. |

Nate: SirGreyBee was the same way. I always went into another room to watch. He thought it was bad luck for him to watch. |
