This week I'm going to be in Chicago because of an unholy mixture of a business and family trip. I don't know if I'll have a lot of free time, but what are good places to visit on your own? Any fun bars or clubs I should check out? Any other advice for a scared Southerner in the big city? wink

Just so you know... Chicagoans hate the White Sox...

They're just too shy to admit their love for the Cubs like the good fans have..

Anyway.

Michigan Ave has the rich stuff
Wrigleyville has the booze

Okay, walk to the green mill and get shot with a tommy gun by FridgeMagnet. Got it. biggrin

Ooookay. Walking around...did I mention I was from Texas? If somewhere we want to go is around the block, we get in a hummer and drive there, God bless us! (And He does.) wink

Seriously though, I don't know where exactly we're staying. It's part of this trade show package. I think they said it's somewhere by Grant Park.

dude, go to a cubs game. get a bleacher ticket(key) and a bottle of sunscreen. its a blast. tons of eye candy, and good vibes. and while your at it, grab a cheese burger from murphy's bleachers, they are my favorite.

they are a better team, i'll fully admit it, but if youre gonna go to watch a game and have some fun, dont go to comiskey park, it's pretty likely that you'll get robbed walking to the subway.

HOWEVER if you wanna drink beers and watch a game and stumble from bar to bar afterwords, go to the friendly confines. wink

What city do YOU live in? Fucking Wrigleyville on game days. The entire north side is a parking lot with drunk-ass frat boys weaving between the cars and jumping into traffic hours after the damn game, hollering the most clever things they've ever thought of, while the cops ticket every other person for the stupidest shit like smoking near an entrance. Never, never, never will I live there again.
