April 25, 200520 yr That is the city of Chicago's new promise for people who park illegally or breakdown in the Loop. http://www.nbc5.com/news/4411599/detail.ht...994&dppid=65192
April 25, 200520 yr They should be so fast getting accidents off the expressways. No money in that, I guess....
April 25, 200520 yr Welp...this answers my Butch Walker debate. Heck, the Cubs being in town that night did that for me.

Ahhh, your hatred of Chicago decided that a long time ago.... There are a few places to park around Wrigley that you don't need a neighborhood sticker, and there's a garage I like to use that's not TOO far. I have to catch the Clark St. bus from the garage, but I have a monthly pass so I don't mind.
April 25, 200520 yr We always park on that stretch of road by a school (I think the street name is Seminary?) There's 40 or so spots that you don't need a permit for. Or we use a friends permit, or a parking pass. I hate parking over there.

It used to be SO much easier and nicer ( as far as availability of parking spaces and no fear of ticketing/towing ), before the Cubs became everyone's darling. Back in the early 80's, it was easy and dangerous to park around Wrigley Field. Now it's difficult and dangerous... Edited April 25, 200520 yr by The Critic
April 25, 200520 yr There might be non-sticker areas, but the Cubs game is at 7:05 that night, and I am sure there will be more people there than at Butch, so I am expecting parking to be a REAL joy that night. Seminary used to be the main road to park on way back in the day. Now I think that is the only one to park on (last time I checked), and those spots fill up pretty dang fast, especially with that team of goons playing that night.

UGH. 7:05 start = forget about going down there that night. Bad scheduling for Butch. If the Cubs would have played a day game, maybe some drunken frat boys stop in at Metro to try to pick up 16-year-old girls...
April 25, 200520 yr Yeah, when Kristy was filling out her schedual at work, she called asking if I wanted to go to Butch. I told her to check to see where the Cubs were at, she said "home, 7:05" and I said "work that night, I'm not going to that show". Problem solved.
