I believe that won't be possible in Chicago.

As for the pizza, Pompei (http://chicago.menupages.com/restaur...taurantId=9119) is pretty good.

For pizza the BEST Chicago deep dish pizza is Gino's East.

Buckingham Fountain is in Grant Park. It is close to the museum campus. The planetarium, field museum and museum of science and industry are all pretty cool.

You are going to be hard pressed to find even a gun range in the city, let alone full-auto. You will have to go to vegas for that. Our mayor is so anti-gun I think he wants to ban them from the police too.

IMO, Lou Malnati's has the BEST deep dish pizza.


You can check out Blue Man Group also. For a diverse scene....go to RA. Chicks dancing up on poles every Friday and Saturday night.

Nightlife with COLOR: Transit/The Apartment/Funky Buddha/Zentra/D'Vine and whereever this "RA" place that ap1chick keeps talkin about (share gdamnit. i wanna see pole dancing ho's)

see the previous thread here for some restaurant recs above and BEYOND just friggin pizza.

blue man group is on tour EVERYWHERE now, don't even bother. if you actually want to watch "theatre", go to the Steppenwolf, or the Goodman, 2 companies that rival anything else in this country.
