Re: Chicago Bills bars?
When I was there a few years ago (Monday night opener vs Pats - McFumbles ugh) there were two.
Delilah's Bar, and Lincoln Station. They're both off Lincoln Ave. Delilahs is supposed to be more of a dive. I went to Lincoln Station, and apart from the final score, I had a great time.
Bills Backers of Chicago
Lincoln Station
2432 N Lincoln Ave.
Chicago, IL

Re: Chicago Bills bars?
They're easy to find. Just look for Illinois on this page.
There is also a map of the "official" Bills Backers bars everywhere.
Looks like there are a couple in the city of Chicago (as was already said), but you might want to check out the ones(s) in the suburbs too...Streamwood is a suburb of Chicago.

He's staying in the city for Riot Fest. Streamwood would be a COMPLETE NIGHTMARE to get to from the city, so I think he's better off staying urbanOriginally posted by feldspar View PostThey're easy to find. Just look for Illinois on this page.

If he wanted a nightmare, he'd go to Crystal Lake. I hear they have a nice camp out there they affectionately refer to as Camp Blood.Originally posted by IlluminatusUIUC View PostHe's staying in the city for Riot Fest.

Who needs Riot Fest?Comment

Re: Chicago Bills bars?
Actually we are staying by OHare because it's the only reasonably priced hotel we could find. I googled it and we are about the same distance from Streamwood and the city but we may try to check out a few more sites in the city before the game.Originally posted by IlluminatusUIUC View PostHe's staying in the city for Riot Fest.

Re: Chicago Bills bars?
BTW, there really IS a Bills Backers bar at Crystal Lake in Illinois, so keep that in mind.Comment

Re: Chicago Bills bars?
We ended up at Delilah's last night. Obviously no Bills game.
The bad: only a few Small TV's so it didn't seem ideal for game viewing, small overall, no in house food (but they do allow people to bring in outside food).
The good: punk rock on the juke box and a clientele singing along with Sex Pistols and Ramones songs, literally hundreds of whiskeys ranging from $3 Makers Mark to $100 a shot fancy ****, decent rum selection, Labatt and Genny.
It's a complete dive in every sense of the word. It's the kind of place that I love but I wouldn't recommend it for everyone.Comment

Best way to establish yourself and fit in at a dive is ordering a double Rock 'n Rye first.Originally posted by OpIv37 View PostFiat justitia ruat caelum. Noli timere. Laus Deo.Comment
