[projectmx]

[Lord_Zath]

gonna be pretty nasty .

 

[sanblaster]

yeah out of all the friken days it has to feel like s*** on Saturday.

 

[Lord_Zath]

Starved Rock might have better weather...

 

[Lord_Zath]

... nope 51 and showers.

I blame it on the Canadian.

 

[sanblaster]

I HATE CHICAGO WEATHER. You guys up for doing anything else Saturday? If not we can all sit in the parking lot in our cars looking at each others cars in the rain. (bang)

 

[SubXer0]

we could go to old orchard mall and meet in that parking garage or navy piers parking garage lol

 

[projectmx]

doing something at navy pier sounds kinda cool

 

[Fear]

doing something at navy pier sounds kinda cool

Minus the fact I'm down here 5-6 days a week already. Plus, IIRC it's kinda pricey to park at the pier.

 

[sanblaster]

I think we should all decide by tonight if not maybe a bbq at someones house or something, a get together somewhere, a dinner, I don't know.

 

[Fear]

ESPN Zone. That place rules.

 

[sanblaster]

Something because it is looking miserable tomorrow. I was out yesterday at a job site marking a patio and walk. Just absolutely sucked ass. Indoors is looking more and more like a reality unless people are still up for the beach.

 

[Fear]

Any big laser tag places around? That s***'s fun with a big group.

 

[sanblaster]

There is one in Gurnee but I think it is small. Maybe some of the other guys know. That would be pretty cool.

**Just spoke with my bro and he told me that rink side in Gurnee holds between 20-25 people. It is one option for tomorrow or one think we can do.

 

[Fear]

s***, I dunno. ESPN zone would be cool, but parking downtown is a b****.

 

[projectmx]

downtown isn't too bad for parking on weekends if you know how to do it... i rarely pay for parking or if i do rarely more than $10

Ditto. I can park at North Pier area (just outside Navy Pier) any day any time for cheap if I remember quarters. But otherwise, I'm stuck with $25 parking with the first available spot like 15 floors up.

If you guys were smart, you'd do a Park and Ride. Park at the lots at Cumberland & I90 or River Rd in Rosemont on the north side, Des Plaines/River Rd in Forest Park for the west siders, or 95th & I90 for south siders. It's usually only a few bucks to park and 4 bucks round trip on the 'L'.
