BESTS 
Tags: Chicago, fun, pizza, play
Whenever I tell people I come from Chicago, I get "brrr, cold" or "Al Capone". Oh brother, so I've decided to list the best things about Chicago and being a Chicagoan and no Al doesn't make the list.
| | Pizza - Sorry New Yorkers, you just can't compare. I know you'll disagree, but I'd crawl on my hands and knees over broken glass for a slice of Gino's East. By far the best thing about living in Chicago |
| | History - From Leopold & Loeb to Charlie Chaplin, the White City has a lot more history than people really know. |
| | Sports - While it's not my passion, you'll find that those inclined are more than passionate about their sports. Personally I like running, folks you can't imagine how beautiful running in Chicago can be. |
| | Men - Some of the best men live here, no metrosexuals need apply. Strong, gorgeous, down-to-earth guys. |
| | Food - Oh my God! Polish, Italian, Asian, Indian, Hispanic, Soul Food. You name it, you'll gain 50 pounds off it. |
| | Ethnic Mix - The best part of growing up here is all the different ethnic groups and the foods and smells and styles. It's like growing up in a mini version of the world all in your own backyard |
| | Culture - The best museums, art & architecture |
| | Shopping - Not so much in the city proper because of the extra taxes but suburbs, Excellent |
| | Work Ethic - Chicagoans are famous for it, if you want something done right ask a Chicagoan. |
