England v USA - Chicago, Post game drinking.
 
Ok

After careful deliberation. This place has been decided as the watering hole of choice by us (well, I googled it, and Another Limey said “Yeah, whatever”)



So if you’re in Chicago for the game and fancy a beverage or 2 afterwards.

We’ll see you there.





Also, commemorative t-shirts are being made by this website* shirts of the USA tour.





Any problems or suggestions. Gimme a PM.

Yeah, I'll second that make sure there are loads of photos of the festivities. Sorry I could'nt make it however I thought $1000 for a freindly was a little much, which is what it would have cost me with flight, hotel, ticket, spending money etc. Hope those that go have fun.

I had a few beers there last weekend when some friends from home came over. Cool place though could get very crowded if there is 1000's of you there after the game.

England v USA - For those in NE Ohio
 
Many of us cannot make the trip to Chicago that weekend so here in our area we're getting together to watch the match and have a pint....play a bit of pool and darts.

Sorry guys, I am a little lost. What are you talking about?

Please tell me you are talking about football! I am in Chicago from June onwards.... if it is football, then I am in there like swimwear!

If it's about something completly unrelated, then I'll get my coat...

Cool... where is it? I love *proper* footie. :D I need to introduce my daughter to proper footie, I still have dreams of her going to primary school in England *sigh* which would mean getting back to the UK within 4 years. Anyway, that's the day the hubby goes down to Indianapolis for the race, so you never know, the wee one and I might just have to come down to Chicago. :D

Details please!
