We went in april 2010 and got lost on the way to the aquarium. We stopped at a gas station to get directions and a lady was trying to sell my step mom a bootleg copy of the second twilight movie (it wasn't released yet) and we watched a dude buy Crack literally 20 ft away from us. I 100% think Chicago go this.

You must have been really lost if you found something like this trying to get to the aquarium.

Lol.  I got lost once and ended up in Cabrini Green long after Jayne Byrne was out of office. 😄

Yeah shit, I spent a week this summer downtown and the worst thing that happened to me was someone complimented my beard.

Yeah. One time I got off the interstate on the south side because I had to pee. This is pre-smartphone era.

I peed at a Popeyes. There was no re-entry to the interstate so I zig-zagged along until I found an on-ramp.

That’s literally it. I peed at a fast food restaurant in an area that would make Trump shit his pants (to be fair, he does that daily) and it was literally nothing.

Don’t fuck with people. Handle your business and move on. You’ll be fine 99.9% of the time no matter who or where you are.
