Chicago?

[bettingpython]

Will they recognize my Oklahoma CCW. . . Anybody got any suggestions for any good gun shops to go check out?

Just kidding I know better. But I am going to be there on a Sunday - Tuesday in the near future. Wife is going to a training course I have to fly home on a Tuesday evening.

What is there to do, we get in early Sunday, we plan to do the Museum of Science and Industry, she's talking about the Sky Deck at Willis Tower which gives me the heebie jeebies, not sure I want to ride an elevator 1353' up. Which for those of you who don't now it that is over 1/4 of a mile. And the Magnificent Mile. I'll have all day on Monday to myself until 5pm so I will need to find something to do then we have to figure out out the evening.

Suggestions welcome.

Bulls are on the road and the only seats available at the blackhawks game while we are there are $200 and up with only single seats available so those 2 options are out.

Fly in, walk through the underground tunnel from airport terminal to the airport Hilton. Have a drink, go to sleep, get up, go back to terminal and leave.

That was as close as I needed to get to Chicago.......

Don't drink anymore, and just because the politicians are idiots doesn't mean I can't go enjoy the city.

You had me doubting your intelligence with the first line of your original post. lol

The only thing to do in Chicago is to try not getting shot. Good luck!

Geno's East Pizza for a real Chicago style pizza. Every time I go to Chicago I eat there. There are a few around town but the one close to the Magnificant Mile is the best. They let you grafitti all over everything so bring some sharpies!

It was an attempt at levity...

Enjoy your visit.

As 'tarded as Chicago is, it is a fun place to visit. I recommend taking CTA trains and busses everywhere you go. It's fun to be like the locals. Genos is good stuff. Navy Pier is a little overrated IMHO. The science and industry museum is cool. Unfortunately I had to catch a flight so I didn't get to stay long the day I went. One of my previous employers was based in Chicago so I had to make a few trips up there.

Sounds like if you ever needed a CCW that's the city you would need it in.Elevator 1353 sounds neat.

Museum of Science and Industry has the U-505 submarine.

I went to Chicago once. Rode the train, went to the art museum, ate someplace within walking distance to the museum, rode train back to airport...left. No desire to revisit to windy.
