Never been there before, but it looks interesting. Make sure to try a tomato pie from Uno.

As of a few years ago you had to pay to get to the observation deck of the Hancock Bldg., but you could take the elevator up to the bar a floor or two below it for free. Same panoramic views.
I'd go to the Art Institute.

As a native I'll tell you what's up. you want to go down to polaski or Cicero. find any nig there are lots of them. buy heroin. enjoy your stay.
nah, the water tower is going to be lit up and Michigan is a lot of fun to stroll down. you want Giordano's, uno's has gone to shit since it franchised. Buy all cig's before you get in the city. Navy pier is a safe tourist bet as well.
there a few EDM shows this weekend, and this time of year is newbie friendly since they arnt as packed so close to Christmas.
if you have your own car, you can drive through the ghetto for shits and giggles. IV seen a few beat downs just rollin through the drive through.

Except Chicagos one of the biggest cities in the US, and totally different than the rest of IL.
 P.S. Southern IL isn't very flat either by the way. There's a forest and plenty of caves and creeks. Not quite as nice as some parts of Missouri, but definitely worth checking out if you're ever around there.
@lunar Better late than never A few friends and I used to take the train up there on weekends all the time while we were still in high school. Gotta love staying fucked up the whole time without ever having to worry about driving  As for what to do.. Lots of shopping. Lots of concerts going on. Lots of good food.
Tons of great beer too

As pcplease said, So. Ill is very different from the rest of IL.
And expect the city to smell like doodoo the majority of the time you are there. I enjoy being in the city for 48-72, but anything after that I just get sick of the chaos and unhappy people everywhere. The first few times there are fun if you go to some of the museums and such like the shed, the field, art institute, etc or downtown for shopping/walking around. But for me it gets old quick.

Chicago smells worse than home unfortunately in my opinion at least. Our air smells like pollution, Chicago smells like piss and shit I'd crash there, personally, so I could enjoy the luxury of all-night i.e. drunk dining

The funniest part to me is that he mentioned IL being flat in a discussion about Chicago It's a huge city. NYC is pretty flat too, as is Phoenix, as is Atlanta, as are most big cities

Best deep dish (not chicago style) is at a place in lincoln park called pequods pizza. You wont regret it. Also. Dont drive to the south side for fun. A few people PER DAY are literally shot and or killed down there. Its dangerous. Seriously.

Most of my friends in Chicago are South side It's not that bad.. cheaper and as long as you aren't an idiot and/or douche you're fine. Parts of it are terrible, but some parts of St. Louis are worse. Most of the crime is gang on gang, not gang vs. random. In Chicago, St. Louis, New Orleans, NYC, etc. While some crimes against "innocent" people happen, they are few and far between.
