    Hope to be at Chicago #2.  One of my best friends is getting married the night of a Chicago #1.
    Sucks we can't meet up again prior to Chicago #1

    I’ll be there both nights, even if I don’t score tickets. The hang is worth it. 
    Probably the best couple nights of the year for the firefighters across the street.

    I really hope they bust out "I got id" night 2.
    Love that song. Came on during my jog this morning and I had to hit repeat.

    Looks as though the $10 lot is sold out on parkwhiz but the $9 lot is still available for Wrigley #1 (entry anytime after 12pm and exit anytime before 4am). Definitely recommend booking on parkwhiz if you're looking for a secure reasonably priced option.

    So what are some of the best places to get an Italian beef sandwich that aren’t too far from Wrigley? The best looking place I found on yelp was The Original Mr. Beef but it’s almost a whole hour away according to my gps.

    Probably just first show. Too tough to do multiples at this point in my life, plus the whole Wrigley thing is not very appealing. 2 at United center I'd be more likely 
    No you can do both
  • Hoping for the 18th will be my first pj show and stadium show. Would love to do 20th but will be in baltimore for work on the 21st. :(

    I'm going for 2nd show Wrigley - but won't need the guest ticket, if anyone gets 1st show and wants to tag-team, I'm game!

    this city is so filthy, like my mind in ways

    Yeahhh...  original Mr Beef is in the far SW burbs.  Here are several suggestions (I'm weird about Itl Beefs...)
    1 - Johnnies - Not close to wrigley but its the best imo.  But you prob don't want a 90 min RT...
    2 - Mr Beef on Orleans (not my fav, but best closest to wrigley)
    3 - Luke's - Its in the loop if your down there at all.  Its solid
    4 - Portillos - In river North...  it's a chain, BUT.....  its really good
    5 - Bari - on grand ave.  More of a deli, but really good beef
    6 - Jays - nw side...  lots of people say this is their fav.  Its good
    7 - Carms - On Polk.  Really good
    8 - There are others too (Al's/Buona) 
    All in all, any of those on the list are good.  Just google map them and figure out which is the most convenient...  95% of all pizza places have them too, there are hundreds of beefs in the city
    First - Chicago, Illinois (March 10, 1994) *
    In Between - Chicago (9), East Troy (4) Champaign (1), Noblesville (1), Moline (1)
    Last - Wrigley (August 20, 2016)
