SOLD OUT: Chicago Main Event League 2

[uky]

From an outsider, my 3 favorite eateries "Downtown"...

Pizza...Pizano's on Madison St.
Seafood...Shaw's Crab House on Hubbard St. (best oysters I've ever had, and it's not even close)
Steak...Smith and Wollensky on N. State St.

These are all in close proximity to Michigan Ave and the Chicago River, downtown..

COZ:

Now that is what I was looking for, very nice! Equipped with photo's, bonus round.


I have Thursday to myself, so I think I'm going to give Lou Malnatti's a shot. Maybe a trip to
Hawthorne Race Course and then the BlackHawks. My son is booked for Saturday and I'm working on
Big Jimmy!

No trip to Chicago would be complete w/out seeing the Big Guy - Jack Haan! Hope Big Jack drops
In to help.

When the NFFC had the 3-City Challenge a few years ago, Lou's was the pizza everyone talked about as the best in Chicago. You can't go wrong there. Now that Jim is coming to the Windy City, it sounds like you have the perfect plan in place for Thursday and Friday-Saturday looks like a lot of fun as well. Good job on the planning!!

And here's the good news for Chicago: Jim Christie has changed his Main Event Online to Chicago Main Event and will be joining Sack in the Auction and Primetime, while competing on his own in the Main Event. We're now at 26 teams for the Windy City Main Event, giving us 4 SPOTS LEFT in the 2nd Main. We also have just 1 SPOT LEFT in the Chicago Primetime. Good job all and good luck.

welcome to sack and the champs. sack- nail on head- messmer was the best- then he gets his throat cut- unbelievable. mr. kentucky- how are all those 1 year chicago rentals working out for kentucky b ball? ps- alinea is the best restaurant in chicago. about $300 a plate- or as they say on the east coast- tip money.

[Sack]

Bill Cleavenger - appreciate you taking the time to post your choices, I'll certainly look into them if it shakes out for me. Thanks.


Greg - both Kenny and Luny will miss the Auction. Both have Friday obligations, but they will be there for all
the fun on Saturday. Chip in at Midway and Mr Christie at O'Hare - I'm going to get a lesson on driving in the Windy
City.

Headhunters - thanks, won't see this Police Sgt springing for any $300 plates!

[headhunters]

sack-my dad was an officer. was thinking about him when i read the obit on bill monbouquet. was there with my dad for his no hitter.

[MadCow Sez]

You can't go wrong with Lou's pizza....worth it every time I'm in town

[Greg Ambrosius]

We welcome Mike Diedrich back to Chicago for the NFBC Tripleheader as he added the Main Event and Primetime League to his weekend of fun in the Windy City. He was already in the Chicago Auction League, which is full, and now he's ready for more. We now have 27 owners in the Chicago Main Event and 13 for the Primetime. Mike is willing to push a second Primetime League in Chicago and hook up with another city if needed. I like it!!

Let's fill up this second Main Event league in Chicago and keep the momentum going in the Windy City. Great job everyone.
