Trivia

When the band played in Chicago, someone allegedly had the band's name displayed on the marquee in front of legendary Wrigley Field. This was in reference to the movie Ferris Bueller's Day Off, in which the titular protagonist fakes an illness in order to be able to skip school. This leads to an impromptu aid campaign initiated by his schoolmates under the slogan "Save Ferris", which is used as a running gag throughout the movie. Chicago (officially named the City of Chicago) is the third largest city in the United States (after New York City and Los Angeles), with an official population of 2,896,016, as of the 2000 census. ...

From a reader: "I have the Ferris Bueller DVD handy, so I've got a correction: Leon Durham (No. 10) of the Chicago Cubs was playing first base in that scene, with a runner at first during some game against the Atlanta Braves.
The boxscore from the actual game that Ferris and friends attended can be found here: http://www.retrosheet.org/boxesetc/B06050CHN1985.htm It was an afternoon tilt with the Braves in 1985.
Ferris caught that foul in the top of the 12th of a 3-hour (3:09) game that probably started at 1pm CDT (maybe noon if it was some special holiday that necessitates a German pride parade), then went to the parade, took comatose Cameron home, and beat his parents back home.
