Wrigley Field is the 2nd oldest ballpark in Major League baseball. It is very well known for the ivy foliage covering the outfield walls. Wrigley Field is one of baseball's most old-fashioned parks even though it does have lights installed. Wrigley Field has essentially advertisement free, with only advertisements on nearby buildings. The area outside Wrigley Field, called Wrigleyville, is filled with fans on game day. Ballhawks as they are called, wait on Waveland Avenue to catch homeruns during the game. There are even fans who sit on top of buildings behind Wrigley Field to watch the game. The scoreboard is still manually operated, ivy still covers the brick walls in the outfield, and bleachers seats are as valuable as ever. There are flags on top of the scoreboard that still remind fans whether or not the Cubs won the day before, and where they are in the standings. The main icon that is truly missing from Wrigley Field today is the former broadcaster of the Cubs Harry Carey, who used to sing "Take Me Out To The Ballgame".
