Went to Chicago this past weekend for the Tigers/Sox game on Sunday. I stayed a few extra days to hang around the city and shop with the family. Here's a few photos:



Sears Tower






United Center





I gotta give props to the people there cause they were all very nice and helpfull with directions. Everywhere I went with the Tiger "D" on my hat I got a lot of crap after the Sunday game since they were swept. I ended up buying a Cubs hat at the Chicago Tribune store.

The view in the 3rd and 4th pics is beautiful. I remember going to the John Hancock building up on like the 90th floor and just staring at it for a while.

Nice pics!! Good to see you bought a Cubs hat. Bridgeport can be rough. I went there for a Sox game in Cubs gear and I got pelted with trash. :beerbang2:

I always wanted to go up in one of those highrises. I did when I was a tiny kid but I don't remember.

Chicago is an amazing city. I'm sure you would enjoy it. I'm looking forward to being in the city.

Before the game it wasn't bad when walking around the stadium. After was a different story of course. <_<

I hate elevators. I cant even stand going up 1 floor let alone 96 or w/e. My dad was in the hospital a while ago, and everytime I got back from school, my mom and me would go an hour and a half to see my dad on the 8th floor. we had to eat at the hospital, too, which was on the first floor. we went on that elevator 3 times a day. I hated it.

Hospital food tastes like crap, and there are no healthy options.

its an aquired taste. I know the Downriver area hospitals food. Wyandotte Hospital has a Subway. Beaumont has a deli, very good. The worst has to be Riverside. Its shut down now.
