SnB Posted July 17, 2009 Share Posted July 17, 2009 What's the best route to take to get from Mccormick Place to Wicker park around 6 pm on weekdays. Any route i've tried so far has just been brutal. (the highway, LSD....) Any super secret side street? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlaSoxxJim Posted July 17, 2009 Share Posted July 17, 2009 6pm traffic may be brutal all around, but back in high school with the Jebbies at St. Ignatius, Roosevelt to Ashland would have been the route of choice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shipps Posted July 17, 2009 Share Posted July 17, 2009 Note to shipps...do not ever again take LSD going north when Elton John is having a f***ing concert at Wrigley. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyyle23 Posted July 17, 2009 Share Posted July 17, 2009 (edited) shipps, I didnt know you used a lot of drugs(and were so open about using them). I can imagine that the Rocketman would be pretty crazy while on LSD Edited July 17, 2009 by KyYlE23 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoSox05 Posted July 17, 2009 Share Posted July 17, 2009 Yeah, I would head over to Ashland. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do not attempt to take LSD from the Sox park to get to the Metro only to arrive right when the Police concert at Wrigley is letting out. Hooray for taking 2 hours to park.

CanOfCorn Posted July 17, 2009 Share Posted July 17, 2009 (edited) Roosevelt sometimes is a pain until you get to Halsted. A lot of cars, a lot of lights. Might wanna try Cermak to Ashland instead since you are already that far south. Edited July 17, 2009 by CanOfCorn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigSqwert Posted July 17, 2009 Share Posted July 17, 2009 You can always get one of these if you want to get home quickly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats about $504,000 over my budget so I will have to think about it for a while. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The comment of the day was thus "Elton John at the worlds biggest gay bar. How appropriate." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soxbadger Posted July 17, 2009 Share Posted July 17, 2009 Yesterday was unusually bad on LSD because there was a car stopped in the middle of the road by the Lincoln Park softball fields. I take LSD every day from lower Wacker to Montrose and most of the time traffic is fine after you get past the light at Northwestern Law/Medical school. Cubs night games it also is a little slower, especially around Belmont exit because its designed horribly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
