Chi Town - Hangover part 3?

Our Chicago trip. Wow. Where to begin!? The goal was to see a Cubs/Cards baseball game. Possibly sneak in an afternoon game on Friday also. Then the storms rolled in on Thursday afternoon. We all had the afternoon off early, but one of my meteorologist friends had to stay at National Weather Service until the storm passed through. Guess we were spending the night in Omaha! We hit up happy hour and finished the night off at a new place called House of Loom down by the 10th street bridge. Local DJ Brent Crampton use to host this event at Espana called Loom, basically weaving the art, music, and cultures of selected countries together. Its a really good time! Well now he has his own place and the place is bangin!

Outside of Wrigley Field 

Our first night in Chicago. At Rock Bottom Brewery 

Let the hotel preparty begin!

The rest of the Chicago trip you ask? In a nutshell...can you say it was a getting kicked out of the Cubs game, passing out on the Red Line and missing your stop, seeing the back of a police car, girls puking all over your bathroom floor with no panties on, pretending to jerk off the guy in the elevator only to find out we have no clue who he was, LaSalle Power Company, not remembering that the night before you showed the guys all of your tattoos, throwing playing cards out the window during a storm, drinking at 10:30am, going to bed at 4am on a corner chair with a towel as a blanket, not paying attention to the Cubs/Cards game because of the air show and all of the spilled beer, trying to get into a club only to find out the VIP host's card you got on the freakin Metro quit last week (seriously, you're an idiot), Bugles (the chip) in the passed out guy's nose, having people walk in on you while you are on the pot, waking up and hearing the dirty going on, not only waking up but actually sleeping in the same bed while the dirty was going on, trying to crawl out of the subway on hands and knees only to see the doors close in slow motion on you, getting to party with your cousin for the first time in 33 years, having some feminine guy get kicked out of the club by a bouncer because he touched your mohawk not once but twice, one king sized bed for four guys because Hilton Inn gave up your room, dancing at Cubby Bear only to get a text saying I've been arrested again type of trip???

This girl has a brostache! 


Yes...it was one of those types of trips where anything and everything probably happened. Felt like I was a writer trying to figure out the storyline for the next Hangover part 3.

Who needs bandaids when you got toilet paper! 

It was one of those kinds of mornings.  

Thanks Barb for the beer! 10:30am and we were drinking! 

We were having shoe problems that day 

Mmm...food and beer 
Airshow during the game. See the heart? 
Yeah we threw that. You got a problem passed out guy?

Security was watching us like a hawk! 

Korver in the middle! 

Bring in the cheap aviators that I bent back into shape
