I'm watching the game today on FOX, and I just noticed that the wall looks a lot different and now has advertisements! When did this happen and why?

They're just trying to make some money. They put Under Armour ads on the green doors in the outfield, and a "knothole" in the right field wall so people can watch from the street. As for the ivy, it doesn't come into bloom until the weather warms up for a significant stretch of time. Once summer rolls around, it'll be green again.

Anything is possible in today's sports world. Since the Cubbies haven't done much of anything in over a century and the fact that the White Sox seem to be the competitive franchise, it could happen. The down side for historical reasons would be the loss of Wrigley Field. Of course no one believed that the old Yankee Stadium would one day be just a memory. Such is the world of sports business. It would be hard to imagine no Wrigley Field or for that matter no more Fenway Park. I think it would be a different story or no story at all if the Cubs were winning pennants and a world series now and then. Of course that hasn't happened.

For one, the weather isn't right yet for the ivy to grow. 2nd, the Cubs organization sturck a deal with Under Armour to put the ads on the doors of the outfield.

The ivy has not begun to bloom yet. It lloks this way every April. It will start to look green about the same time that Lou Pinella buys a new razor blade.

it happen during the offseason because they have to pay alfonso sorianos contract. the ivy will grow during the season and will come out later. the pending sell affected the advertisements.
