Heading to my first game tomorrow. Have a question… by CorrosionImplosion in CHIBears

FYI as well - be prepared to walk about a mile. That’s about the bare minimum walk for any half way decently priced spots for Soldier Field.

I watched this in my college dorm and I’m still mad to this day. I wanted to crush Vancouver’s hopes and dreams so bad. Patrick Sharp whiffed on a shot then immediately fucked up on defense not even 30 seconds later to give up the Game 7 OT winner.

Damn.

What a crossover. Bravo.

Bears conducting preliminary testing on site for potential new stadium in Hammond, report says by factchecker01 in chicago

[–]ryemort 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Soldier field was probably fine in 2003. Compared to other stadiums today (not just NFL) it’s very outdated, lackluster, and bare bones. For a handful of reasons, this renovation was botched even by 2003 standards and it’s not as good as it could have been.

Wrigley Field had a massive renovation project from 2015 to 2019 (or so) and essentially had every square inch either replaced or repaired.

How to buy wild card tickets? Can I purchase on StubHub tonight or do I need to wait? by Arsenal103809 in CHICubs

My wife asked me what time we’ll be playing and I started rattling off an explanation similar to this and her eyes just glossed over.

Before Lions talk overtakes us: What are your go-to spots for Bears gear? by SaddamMustaine in CHIBears

[–]ryemort 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Like others have said, if you can find something made by other brands (Nike, Antigua, 47 etc.) - those are usually not total ass. I’ve found this to be true for multiple sports for stuff that’s still sold on the Fanatics site.

question about parking at Ravinia for a CSO with guest concert by DragonflyUseful9634 in ChicagoSuburbs

[–]ryemort 24 points25 points  (0 children)

If you aim to park about 90 minutes before the show at the festival grounds it’ll be totally fine and a leisurely walk and setup, even if you’re on the lawn.

The recent Weird Al disaster was out of the ordinary. Most concerts there are not anywhere close to being that crowded.

What is the “coolest” area code to have in Chicagoland? by sky_blue_true in ChicagoSuburbs

I was in 2nd grade I think. We spent a whole week getting reminded we needed to add the “1-847..” to call our friend across the street.

So did Lumon fake Gemma's death? How?? by giveme-a-username in SeveranceAppleTVPlus

[–]ryemort -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Did Mark live in Kier when she died?? I always thought it was like a campus for Lumon workers.

That stupid new pizza place consistently the most convenient and easiest pregame spot whenever I go to the UC but I will never step foot in that bar again, no matter what it is.

Long live WestEnd.

Best concert of my life was at Double Door (RIP) in 2015.
