Default Odd Chicago Pics

While cleaning up my files I found a few odd Chicago pics and I thought it may be a fun thread to start.

Post your odd (not staged) photos if you've got 'em.

Man in Box on Michigan Ave.



How not to park or this car's driver obviously mis-read where the exit was.



This pole is located on our walk to the "El", and we noticed the other day that they replaced the wires from the old poles to the new poles except for this one. Since the old pole looks like it supports the entire grid of Chicago they opted not to re-wire and just attached a portion of the old pole to the new one.
