Football/sports related question

Hello, I am an Ohio Nestie looking for a little help. DH and I were planning on coming to town this fall to see a Bears game. He is having second thoughts on that because of the high cost of tickets, but because the rest of the trip is planned and hotels are already booked we will still be in the area. I was wondering if anyone could recommend a cool sports bar to go to where we can watch the game. It's not the same but will still be better than watching football surrounded by Steelers and Browns fans.

Re: Football/sports related question

  • Where is your hotel? Do you want to go to a bar by the hotel or take a cab somewhere?

  • Right now our hotel is close to the stadium, but since we are not going to the game I am trying to talk the husband out of staying there. I am not opposed to driving somewhere or taking a cab/bus/train.

    I just want to go somewhere fun where DH can watch the game with other Bears fans, which is something he doesn't get to do around here.

  • There are a few bars close to the field that will be wall-to-wall Bear fans. I would stay away from Michigan Ave, not a ton of bars in that area. But the Gold Coast or Old Town will have a ton of sports bars. www.chicago.metromix.com is a good website to find a bar in a specific area.
  • Monkey-- Just a question, are your dogs Jack Russells?
  • No, they are much bigger. Both are around 40lbs. Zoey (left) is some sort of terrier mix and Eldrick (right) is an American Eskimo mix.

  • Wow... they look smaller in the pictures! They look like my Jack Russell, thats why I asked!  Your dogs are adorable!

  • These give a better idea of size...
