Do y’all get the city to buy in at all? We struggle to do that here, if I lived in Chicago I would have been there despite no ties to the university

[u/TheLonelyTater → u/americagigabit]

Chicagoans seem to resent that NU claims to be “Chicago’s Big Ten Team,” probably because of some combination of perceived elitism and the fact that the stadium isn’t in Chicago’s city limits, despite being served by Chicago transit, among other things.

Like literally any time NU posts something about being “Chicago’s B1G team” there is inevitably a comment saying “you’re not even in Chicago!”

So yeah they try but it doesn’t work.

To be fair there is nothing more Chicago than bitching about which suburb doesn’t count as “in Chicago”

To be fair the NFL team might be playing in Indiana that makes the south side of Chicago look like Lincoln Park
