Got a feeling there are far more things to do than time to do them, but, I want to know what interests the folks that may come to PAGAN P07. 
Oh, yeah, there is a ball game at O'Brien field featuring the Peoria Chiefs. The stadium is a new one and possibly worth a look. |
The new stadiums are really "customer friendly" and I know that IowaMan and I would probably be interested in taking in a ball game, but obviously not everyone is into baseball like the two of us, but that would sure kill a couple of hours. |
