streets are already blocked apparently. i guess the moral of the story is get there quick if you're wanna be at lasalle and wacker. we're probably gonna hit the parade and run up to his office and watch the rally out the window and listen on tv.

I just came in on the Green Line. As I was pulling into Clark and Lake, I took a gander north to Wacker/LaSalle....pretty much completely packed as of 9:24. By noon, it'll be hopeless. My advice is to catch the parade further south. I'm not sure you'll be able to see much of the rally.

 

Why didn't they do this at Grant Park?

From what I understand there wasn't enough time to get Grant Park ready.

Those Grant Park rallys sucked.

The Bulls Brothers and Benny and the Luvabulls and of course the Superfans. We looked like an Iowa farmtown welcoming back a highschool football team from a big win.

Much of Grant Park is closed and being used for other things doing to the fact that winter is right around the corner. They didn't think they could get everything set up in time.

You'd think that when we made the World Series, they'd actually consider the possibility that we might actually win it and plan accordingly.
