Question for the locals

but the best way to experience a Chicago baseball trip is to go see the Cubs lose a day game, then hop on the redline and see the Sox win their night game.

I’d say you could swap that around but you dont want to walk around wrigleyville at night.

As long as you don’t mind unhealthy food, deep dish pizza and an italian beef are both pretty much requirements. People are pretty big on the hot dogs too.

I prefer Pizzeria Uno for deep dish (it’s not the same recipe that you’ll find at the chain that goes by the same name), but Luo Malnati’s and Gino’s are both good too.

Personally, I’d take the El to the game, White Sox or Cubs, just to get the genuine feel for the Chicago baseball experience, but public transportation isn’t for everyone. Red line drops you off at each stadium.

Since the revisions the upperdeck isn’t bad but try and get a lower deck seat. Not really any bad views. The food in the park is great. My personal favorites are polish (mustard only- onion for some), italian beef (tell them to dip it), and peeled corn off the cob that they will dress up any way you like.

As far as Chicago visits, sites or events that’s way too broad man. Chicago is a world class city with lots to offer but perhaps give us some of your interests and folks can better steer you to the right spots. Metromix Chicago (where you can put in dates) can help a little.

have fun, and awesome damn btw, favorite movie of all time.

Its worth the $15.

Visit Millennium Park. Yes, it’s chock full of tourists, but it really is pretty cool. Great view of downtown, and tons of stuff see and do within walking distance. Maybe see the sun set from the Signature Room at the Hancock building. Avoid, if you can, Navy Pier and Michigan Avenue shopping. Depending how long you’re in the city, maybe check out some different neighborhoods and their respective bars.

to hit K town on the west side. Holler!
