Chuck, you are showing your roots with "...by..." the title of this article. In any other city, the title would have been "...A John Barleycorn near (blank) park?"

A Barleycorn in Bridgeport, lol. Might as well bury a Cubs jersey at Sox Park.

It would be nice if instead of another Barleycorn's someone could open an authentic post-game place. I mean, Barleycorn is almost a chain. Was Bar Louie not interested? Maybe this will be a good opportunity for something like that. Of course, I am a Cubs fan and life-long North Sider. I have not been to a South Side game since about 1982 at the old place, so I can't say I REALLY care, but a Barleycorn there would seem too homogenized to me.

As a Sox fan, it bothers me that people associate Jimbos with the Sox fans. That place is full of racist jerks, and Jimbo himself is a Cubs fans. I wish it was closed down already.

Jimbo's is terrible - whatever they want to put in there is fine by my standards

AHHHH...JIMBOS! Dear god. The THINGS that live in that place. Male? Female? OTHER? I love the south side, but that place is like a parody of the very worst you'll find over by there.

Or even worse, Murphy's Bleachers could start building rooftop decks and sweat-filled, PBR-can littered "beer gardens".

Well, in truth, Bridgport does need more after game entertainment. At least it's not the cubby bear?
