Only in Chicago

...can a seven-year old drink at a baseball game. I know it's just a father's one-time/special occasion gift to his pre-pubescent son, but it's still pretty damn funny.

Ironically, later that game, a fan got doinked in the dome by a ball.

From Yahoo's account of the incident, it sounds like the beer sipping boy may have been the victim.

Doctors and family members say a 7-year-old boy who fractured his skull when
he was struck by a foul ball at Wrigley Field was recovering and expected to
live.

Dominic DiAngi of suburban Frankfort was sitting behind the Cubs dugout
Thursday afternoon during a game between the Chicago Cubs and Cincinnati Reds
when a foul ball off the bat of Cubs pitcher Ted Lilly struck him in the
head.
