southsider2k5 Posted April 25, 2005 Share Posted April 25, 2005 That is the city of Chicago's new promise for people who park illegally or breakdown in the Loop. http://www.nbc5.com/news/4411599/detail.ht...994&dppid=65192 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Critic Posted April 25, 2005 Share Posted April 25, 2005 They should be so fast getting accidents off the expressways. No money in that, I guess.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kid Gleason Posted April 25, 2005 Share Posted April 25, 2005 Welp...this answers my Butch Walker debate. Heck, the Cubs being in town that night did that for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heck, the Cubs being in town that night did that for me. Ahhh, your hatred of Chicago decided that a long time ago.... There are a few places to park around Wrigley that you don't need a neighborhood sticker, and there's a garage I like to use that's not TOO far. I have to catch the Clark St. bus from the garage, but I have a monthly pass so I don't mind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steff Posted April 25, 2005 Share Posted April 25, 2005 We always park on that stretch of road by a school (I think the street name is Seminary?) There's 40 or so spots that you don't need a permit for. Or we use a friends permit, or a parking pass. I hate parking over there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It used to be SO much easier and nicer ( as far as availability of parking spaces and no fear of ticketing/towing ), before the Cubs became everyone's darling. Back in the early 80's, it was easy and dangerous to park around Wrigley Field. Now it's difficult and dangerous...

Kid Gleason Posted April 25, 2005 Share Posted April 25, 2005 There might be non-sticker areas, but the Cubs game is at 7:05 that night, and I am sure there will be more people there than at Butch, so I am expecting parking to be a REAL joy that night. Seminary used to be the main road to park on way back in the day. Now I think that is the only one to park on (last time I checked), and those spots fill up pretty dang fast, especially with that team of goons playing that night.

UGH. 7:05 start = forget about going down there that night. Bad scheduling for Butch. If the Cubs would have played a day game, maybe some drunken frat boys stop in at Metro to try to pick up 16-year-old girls... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kid Gleason Posted April 25, 2005 Share Posted April 25, 2005 Yeah, when Kristy was filling out her schedual at work, she called asking if I wanted to go to Butch. I told her to check to see where the Cubs were at, she said "home, 7:05" and I said "work that night, I'm not going to that show". Problem solved.
