Chicahgo - the local pronunciation cracks me up

Weird in-room guitar rental program at the Hard Rock - did not partake in it

Low-pass by a B2 over Soldier Field. Surprised the hell out of us - it makes very little sound until it's right above your head. Whoosh.

Don't hurt me guise.

Plommer, I just didn't think you could tickets that easily popping in for the weekend! My internet speed might have gone up to 50/25 but my brain speed is the same!

Matty is dating a Canadian broad that makes alot of money, they have lots of disposable income to travel and waste on sporting events.

PS: Matty took those photos using his NIKON D700

Yah MrM. Guy next to me said that Ticketmaster released a couple thousand tix at the last minute. Looks like I was at the right place at the right time. Mind you, these seats were so high and on such a steep slope that we felt mild height vertigo just from looking down at the game.
Fun experience but NFL football is really better on TV. The commentary adds a lot to it.

City itself is stunning. The people seem unpretentious, almost to a fault. Hot girls are few and far between.

The Art Institute is up there with the top of the tops. We showed up at 1pm and had to be gently escorted out at 5pm. So much classic stuff on them walls. :10:

Highlight was binge-drinking ginger ale and beam while watching live blues at B.L.U.E.S. the crowd was almost exclusively guys who brought their GF's more or less against their will, funny stuff.

8.5 Matty Rains for magnificent unassuming Chicahgo. :up:

Interesting you say that, when I was there I also felt something kind of pleasant about the people/mood. Maybe unpretentious is the right word

Did you guys go out to any other bars/clubs in Lincoln Park? Did you go out in the Rush Street area? Division St.?

Summer time is really the time to be there. The beach brings out the best in Chicago.

Try to go during the Taste of Chicago some time. That's my favorite time of the year there.

Chicago in the summer is awesome. Chicago in the winter sucks. I was right by the Chicago Theater Saturday.
