Come and Celebrate Michael Prowicz's 38th Birthday
with a Chicago Wolves hockey game
Friday Jan 17, 2003 645pm
Grab the old ball and chain and head out with us to celebrate Michael's birthday (actual birthdate January 15, 1965) on Friday night, January 17, at 645pm. Watch a game, ride into the city without having to worry about traffic and parking, hang at great laid-back neighborhood bar and toast bein' out with friends on a Friday night !! No gifts are neccessary or expected - your presence will be gift enough ;-)
Meeting Place, Time and Transportation
Meet our party transport (van, bus, limo??) at the Blue Line El - Rosemont station for a ride to the game. Park your car in the Rosemont station lot and leave $2.00 in coins for a parking fee. Transportation will be stocked with a case of Michael's favorite beer and will be leaving the station between 645pm and 700pm. The ride from the meeting spot to the game location is only about 20 minutes or less.
The meeting spot has been specifically arranged for ease of after-game party plans. Please plan to take advantage of our transportation; you will avoid parking and traffic and we will have more time to spend with you!
The Game
Chicago Wolves vs. San Antonio starts at 730pm at the AllState Arena.

Tickets for decent seats are $18/each or $16/each paid in advance. Laura will purchase a block of tickets in advance for each RSVP made by January 14, 2002.
We will pay for transportation and first round of drinks after the game at the bar if you will pay for your own tickets. :-)
