@bschaeffer12 I hate that they��ve only played once in September since the schedule format changed. MLB hasn’t done a great job of putting rivalry games in parts of the season that matter the most and that’s my only complaint about the format but it’s a big one.

On this day in 1995, the Grateful Dead played their final show ever. It was the second of two consecutive nights at Soldier Field in Chicago, with The Band opening each show. After closing with a rare double encore of ”Black Muddy River” and “Box of Rain,” the final notes rang out with a fireworks display set to Jimi Hendrix's "Star Spangled Banner,” lighting up the Chicago skyline. No one in the crowd realizing they'd just witnessed the band's last concert, but as we all know, the music never stops 🌹
