Sorry I have an issue with the title of the thread and basically why they hell anyone cares about this BS.
My understanding is that the new owner of the building across from Wrigley decides that he wants to get more money for his building roof's advertisement so he cooks up an excuse - the payment didn't arrive in time - kicks out the old sponsor - Budweiser - and signs on a new sponsor - Horseshow Casino.
The Cubs don't like the change so they changed camera angles during the season and recently put up plywood to block the advertisement from being seen by a majority of fans during games.
Sorry that is not New Advertising at Wrigley. The plywood may turn into advertising space one day but right now it's just planks of plywood painted green. Most of the structure doesn't look permanent.
My guess is that Rickett's wants a cut of the advertising from the building or just wants the old sponsor back in place.
The problem is the title of the thread gets people thinking that Rickets has decided to pimp out Wrigley Field more than it already is. Sorry that's not the case at least yet. My guess is that the structure is torn down before the first pitch of the 2010 season.
