You guys should jut go blow all your money in wrigleyville instead :wink:. This is usually the big bang that starts the season at my other job (bike taxi company), but I have a feeling it's gonna be a bit disappointing this year. There's only like 3 people working tonight out of the 20 something cabs we have...
I used to do that kinda thing when I was younger. My buddy worked at the Cubby Bear back when so I practically lived there. I leave all that to the youngins now. I still like loud music but not the crowds.

There is hardly anything going on for st pats in Chicago today/tomorrow. I don't get it. I'm pretty sure the city schedules the parade and family festivities a week ahead of time to avoid conflicts with the drunken madness of traditional st pats and give people a chance to enjoy both, but apparently the party promoters haven't caught on.
Chicago did away with the public drinking at the parade, From 2013 "The crackdown comes nearly one year after the South Side Irish parade made a triumphant return from a three-year hiatus caused by public drunkenness and arrests." sauce - http://chicago.cbslocal.com/2013/02...wn-could-also-result-in-pride-parade-arrests/

Edit I should have said more about how Chicago is on the look out for drinking people durring this time in general , not just at the parade. So lees pub crawls and things go on. And the ban of booze on the trains to and from the burbs makes less people go there.

I might lurk and comment once in a while when buzzed, but I don't try to do any work at all. You would know if I was a regular get drunk and post kind of guy. Just opened my first beer now. Have 8 on hand and that will be more than enough for this pfrog.
That's good. the not working part. I think that's kind of frowned upon. :thumbup:
(Since I don't drink I'm going to see what I can do to accidentally
make some homemade ginger beer alcoholic without realizing it...and not work :wink: )

Yeah I know, it used to be insane there. Now that madness has mostly migrated to the bar crawls and other festivities which is great imo, Parades should be a family thing not a chance to prove you're the drunkest lunatic in the city.

I guess it's time to clean my monitor when random specs make me
see the word funge instead of lunge. Which I actually googled because I don't know that word.
