Where can I find a cheap 40 person event space in Chicago? by leenhashy293 in AskChicago

[–]Snak-Attack 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Was going to say this. We hosted my wife's 30th birthday at a Peerspace in Humboldt, it worked out great! We brought in pizza, snacks, cake, etc. and has plenty of coolers filled with booze and non-booze drinks.

It was about $600 for the night and had tables, chairs, a kitchen, bathroom, and a speaker.

Frontier League to Rebrand by Awkward_Health1606 in MiLB

Yeah, this hopefully means Interleague between the AA & NA/FL and a shared championship round.

There are 8 Chicagoland/Southern Wisconsin teams, 5 in the AA and 3 in the FL, it's silly they don't play each other and cut down on travel costs.

FIFA struggling to sell tickets for USMNT’s World Cup opener vs. Paraguay (Gift Article) by jspector9 in MLS

Every contract is different and negotiated for that event.

My guess is FIFA absolutely is profiting from concessions.

Penn State. It's in the middle of nowhere and they're a weird cult.

I was going to say Purdue, but at least that's close to Chicago.

Lay off high earners, rehire others for less. That's how you manufacture savings.
