all this chicago bashing...is there anything good about the city?! haha.

i'm flying to chicago this weekend for the MNF game and it'll be my first time to chicago. going with my friend (huge bears fan) and our girlfriends.

anybody have any good recommendations? touristy stuff? food recommendations (i.e. deep dish pizza...haha)? football/game advice? we're staying by the magnificent mile...

appreciate any advice. thanks fellas.

Are you going to Soldier Field to see the game?

yup, i'll be at the game. packers sidelines cheering my ass off! any good pre-game spots around the stadium that's not totally gonna be bear-infested?

btw, thanks guys for the suggestions...definitely gonna try to check out some of those spots

Then wear your Packer gear at your peril. My BIL is from Chicago and he told me if I ever wore green and gold to a Packer/bare game at Soldier Field I wouldn't be treated as civilly as he was at Lambeau.

I really want to like goose island, but I have always been disappointed. It just doesn't live up to the quality expected out of a craft brewery.

I'd have to agree with that. I thought Goose Island was a little overrated.

Ferris Bueller highly recommends the Art Museum. Many classics from the Impressionist Era await you.

100 Reasons to Hate the Bears

[Old School]

I grew up hating the Bears and everything about them. In 1993 I had back surgery and walked endless milles for rehab. I listened to WSCR the SCORE as I walked. During this time I developed a lot of respect for Mike Ditka and Dan Jiggets who had their own programs.

I also remember as a 6th grader going to Brave vs Cub games at County Stadium with my altar boy group. At one game when I stood up for the Cub 7th inning stretch, a lady behind me poured her beer over my head. There are no class fans everywhere.

Chicago is THE UNION STOCKYARDS, Chicago is....

[Packers4Glory]

This being the same Mike Ditka that shit on one of the greatest players in NFL history (and the ONLY Bears player that I have any respect for), that being Walter Payton in their "85 Super Bowl win. Walter toiled on terrible Bears teams for years, never missing a game and giving his all, and when the chance came to reward this great player with a SB touchdown, he gives the ball to that fat retard Perry just so he could cap off their "quirky" image.

DITKA IS A DISGRACE TO FOOTBALL!!

DITKA IS A DISGRACE TO FOOTBALL!!

Haha !! This is a bit out of right field -- but Ditka and my grandfather were best friends. I have memories more fond than you but I was too young to understand what was going on in the 85 SB.

I'll never forget him losing a couple bucks (really, it was nothing) in a poker hand at my uncle's restaurant and sliding a beer all the way down the table and smashing it against the wall. He was and probably will always be a prick ... but I like him.

That said, my family's relationship with Ditka and some of the Bears' players is probably the reason I hate the Bears so much today. My uncles are so obnoxious -- they could definitely body double for the Chicago guys in the SNL skit.

I have a ton of personalized autographs from Ditka that are in storage with a bunch of christmas lights and other stuff I don't really care about. Still, all that would have been cool if I had ended up being a Bears fan.

... just thought I would share, it brought back some memories. My grandfather, Fred Huber, R.I.P.

lol i just edited that but yeh... this is probably the first time i've "bragged" to anyone about those autographs.

[VegasPackFan]

Shouldnt have edited - it was a Freudian slip no doubt.

Another reason to hate the Bears - their fans. I lived in Chi for 6 years and also work with a few here in LV. They are ignorant! They dont know shit about football. They only know da bears. I would give my kingdom to play in a FF league with only a bunch of bears fans. Easy money.

Theya re also GUTLESS as evidenced by their behavior on this board over the years. They disappear when things go bad real quick. Spineless, brainless twits.
