    Gotta be some good clubs or places to see. Might be cold as hell, owell.

    I live right in between Chicago and Milwaukee but everytime I go to Chicago I end up wishing I just did something else. Wrigglyville is fun sometimes but I have never been in winter.

    Better question is what did Chicago do with the snow that just got dropped on it?

    I'd recommend doing something more creative with your money.

    konigandy6 just went last month. He had a good time. Apparently, you need to eat lots while you're out there. Good food

    Lol Maybe you should just do what your friend wants to do if he always does what you want to do? If one of you guys has a Droid I'm sure you'll find something to do on the fly. Its a big city.

    wait til summer. but
    the bad - we have feet of snow everywhere and nowhere to put it, its super cold, museums are gay, and idk i work next door to the sears tower and see it every day so its nothing special to me now. maybe it is to someone whos never seen it though.
    good things- good local music at bars, good pizza, auto show, motorcycle show...

    You gotta get your pizza at Uno's. They are the best hands down. And I think the oldest. For dance club, go to Vision, it is better than excaliber. And they are connected, so you pay for vision, it gets you in excaliber, but not other way around if I remember right.

    Shed aquarium is kinda nice. Then just walk the the shore line by the aquarium. Navy pier is decent.

    I am with the others though, chicago is shit, expensive as fuck and I regret going every time. Parking in downtown usually leads you to these small ass private lots that hold like 30 cars and charge you like 15 bucks. Shit, at the down town McDonalds, you have to pay to park there while you eat!
