Default What to do in Chicago?

I'm going to chi-town! What should I do? Throw it at me! I'm going for my 10 year Anniversary (since we started dating, not married).


Hotel is on Michigan Avenue - The Magnificent Mile. At least my wife will be happy.


Sears Tower - 103 floors up and standing on a glass floor balcony


Howl at the Moon - Dueling Piano Bar


Navy Pier - Tall Ships and Nightly Fireworks


Millennium Park


Cubs Game - Playing the Pirates, so it won't be a sellout. Easier to get tickets

Ah... a coworker who used to live in Chicago told me about it. It's already on my list, as well as Gino's.


I'm also planning on dinner at The Tavern on Rush. Last time I was there, Cedric the Entertainer was sitting 3 tables over.

Actually, I have a buddy who just applied to be a human science project (i.e. display) at the Musuem of Science and Industry, but it probably won't take place for another month or so. He just does crazy sh*t like that while he waits for his job with the FAA, I guess.. Last gig was a month long journey aboard Jet Blue flights ("Terminal Man") where he took advantage of JetBlue's All You Can Jet Pass ($600 for unlimited travel on JetBlue airlines for a month), Wired.com actually ended up pickin' up the tab and he wrote a blog for them in return, look it up ..pretty cool.

Anywho, he's a shoe in for the museum gig. Check it out anyways while you're there.
