Arlington Sat.

[herkhorse]

I'll be driving through Illinois on Sat, and was thinking of making a detour to Arlington. Can anyone tell me how long it takes from say Gary Indiana?, and would it be best to stay on 90 through Chicago, or take 294?

Thanks

If no insane traffic, it would be about 90 min..assuming you survive the trip through Gary;). And because it's SAturday, I would stay on 90 the whole way. There is construction on 294 and you should be able to get through the city ok. You should come over...supposed to be a beautiful day and it's a good card

Thanks GBBob!

yeah, don't stop there, bad news....

I am making an appearance on Saturday

Stay on 90N and take that to 53W (I think) and then take that to Euclid Ave, and then you will see the Palace

[pweizer]

I will be at the handicapping contest at Arlington Saturday in the International room.

You have recommending Channing Hill....you should be thrown in the basement for a week for that recommendation

I know where the hell I am going, I just can't describe or know what direction is, the only time I know where I am at is when I am at Lake Michigan, because everything is east from there.

I can't believe you have never just driven into the lake because you thought you were on 290W

[herkhorse]

Thanks all for the info, hope to see you on Sat., and by reading this forum, I already knew not to listen to Scavs directions:D

In Scavs defence, 90 does head north through Chicago, and like he says, he knows where he's going.


Thanks to Scav, Bob, and Brian for a great tour of Arlington. I see why they call it the Palace. Was very impessed with Clink, what a beast! Thanks to the drunken guy for the tip on the Yanez horse.:$: The only bad thing was Fading Light looking like a winner at the top of the stretch, and not really firing after that. At least I didn't listen to Scav and roll over all my winnings on a win bet. Better luck next time, and nice job in the contest Bob.

Good to meet you! Still stinging a bit over playing the wrong super and missing Vocabulary on the pick-4, but all in all a good day and know you came out on top anyway thanks to one of the most generous Pick-4s of the meet!

LMAO... yea just south of there you got the ghetto known as Lincoln Park and then if you keep going you run into the jungle area of Rush St. Yikes...Keep going south after that and forget about it, you're on Michigan Ave.....

[brockguy]

in Scav's defence, he did manage to "survive" driving through South Chicago with Satan's Twin and I..
