Yeah, I love baseball, but I already looked into it and they're out of town that weekend.   :(

I wonder if they would give you a tour of the stadium? They might... Tell them you're a big Cubs fan ;)

Oh hey, you're welcome for all of the suggestions.

I would imagine if the Cubs are out of town than the White Sox should be around. Won't be Wrigley though, which is a special place. Easily my favorite ballpark I have had the chance to visit, which isn't a ton but includes some of the good ones.

Well unfortunately this trip isn't going to happen.  Fucking dentist bills.

I thoroughly appreciate the effort though folks.  We'll get up there, I'm sure.  And when we do, these suggestions will be  gold.

mega-word. deep dish is a doughy mess...its not even pizza.

Deep dish can be good, lets not go overboard. Supposedly Chicago is the only place they have good ones (and there's only a few places that do it right...)

Deep dish cold for breakfast > regular pizza cold for breakfast.

I haven't lived there for 15 years, but Giordano's spinach/mushroom deep dish was good. That's the one to order, wherever you are (spinach/mushroom). Meat ones are too heavy and gross.

deep dish is more like a wadded up calzone...just a big goey dough ball...only an american would do that to a pizza. >:(

Deep dish is definitely not for purists. It's not supposed to be gooey though. I guess it's a little wetter than a regular slice though.

I personally like a cracker-style crust. Runner-up: thin crust with a little corn meal in there (Two Boots does it like that). Floppy pizza is bad. Deep dish isn't floppy, you can pick it up like a plank.

This information on our deep dish pizza is both ignorant and wrong, what an abomination.

In my personal opinion deep dish pizza isn't real pizza. It's more like a meat casserole. Traditional pizza has a thin crust. It's not droopy and has no more than 2 toppings. Even Californians are on some kick where they think salad is a pizza. Some of those foofoo brick oven places do make good pizza though

Sorry, wrong.  Deep dish is good.  Who complains about pizza?  Don't order it!
Killing threads is my business and business is good.

Seems some of you are confusing pizza with quiche.

I'm not saying that deep dish isn't good. It's fantastic. It's just not pizza.

Deep dish pizza only comes with meat if you order it that way. I already told you that the best Deep Dish pizza to order is spinach/mushroom. It's gross with meat.

Also, deep dish is not droopy. Where are you getting your deep dish from, Pizza Hut?

Also, i think some of you guys are confusing Thick Crust for Deep Dish. because you have been buying some bunk deep dish. To get a good Deep Dish pie, you probably have to be in the Chicago area.

I think the West Coast confuses their sprout avocado covered toast for Pizza

What ever you do, do not go to Billy Goat Tavern. No one eats there because the food is any good.
SNL. Nostalgia is the only reason this place is even open.  F'n McDonalds had better cheeseburger, cheeseburger.

I suppose - I went to the one on Franklin a lot when our office was over by there.   Atmospheric.
