The changes at U.S. Cellular Field have turned a so-so stadium into the finest place in Chicago to watch a baseball game. Sure, at first, the stadium was just too big and too tall for its own good. Sitting in those seats near the top was like sitting in a seat bolted into the side of a wall. However, recent renovations have turned this stadium into a state-of-the-art baseball-watching experience.
They cut down the seats at the top and put in a kind of "roof" or overhang. This changes the wind-patterns on the field, but ads a homey quality to the stadium. The Fundamentals section in left field is the best place to take rowdy kids during the game. They can hit, run, learn to pitch. It's fantastic and well past anything the laughable Flubs on the north side have come up with. Apparently they feel kids will enjoy the stench of beer, vomit and enjoy urinating in a trough.
The food at the Cell is the finest in baseball. Pizza, ice cream, churros, Polish sausage, gyros are all a few feet away. Plus, if you are in in the concourse to get food, the wide-open structure allows you to still see the field and the game, unlike at the crumbling disaster on the north side.
If you want a true baseball experience, visit the White Sox at The Cell. Enjoy the montage and opening theme music with the great sound system and gorgeous Jumbo-Tron. Enjoy the fireworks. Enjoy ample parking that doesn't involve paying $30 to park in some yokel's garage. Mostly, enjoy world championship baseball.

Where do I begin? WTTW is the station that had the good taste to bring me Monty Python and some of my all time favorite shows like Fawlty Towers and the BBC's The Office (I love that David Brent!) I also really enjoy the variety of concerts and special programming they offer here. I'm proud to be a member of Channel 11 and do my part to help support this wonderful PBS station.

Ever since day one, I have loved this station. Sure, I'm not too thrilled that they are playing harder rock (even though I love the tunes, they don't really fit the format as well), but they are still first rate. The jocks don't insult your intelligence, there is no annoying "morning zoo" show (I can't stand those things), and the music is classic and wonderful. Their management team (in particular Patty Martin) do an excellent job with promotions, special events and even personal communication with their listeners. You feel like part of their family when you listen to them.

This is a great television news channel. If you're looking for good quality coverage, turn to channel 2. The weather is pretty good, but overall I find this station to be the most accurate and least sensational of local stations. Their sports coverage is good, too, and my son likes to check up on all the Chicago teams while we watch the news.

I grew up on late 60's/70's tv shows. Some of the biggest shows of all time including All in the Family, Mary Tyler Moore, The Brady Bunch and Sanford and Son. This station, along with their wonderful sister station METV, are one of my favorites because they give a new life to classic sitcoms. It's so fun to sit back and watch black and white episodes of the Twilight Zone or The Honeymooners. It's such a trip down memory lane, especially when METV runs those original tv commercials from the 70's. And I have always loved Svengoolie and The Three Stooges. They all live happily at this cool station. Thanks for making me smile all over again, Channel 26 and METV!

This place has more than just your batteries and necessities. If you are looking for a cool present for someone then they have everything from palm pilots to radio controlled cars. I bought a radio control car from here about six years ago. It is the fastest one that I have ever seen and it still works great.

This radio station has the most incredible morning show, Eric and Kathy. The disc jockeys through the rest of the day are great as well. I have to listen to Eric and Kathy in the mornings, its the funniest. Every year they have a Radiothon to raise money for Childrens Memorial Hospital. They play stories from the families of children whove been treated and its the most touching thing Ive ever heard. This last year they raised over $2 million for the kids. This is the radio station to listen to in the Chicago land area.

We Chicagoans are very proud of our beloved WGN. They feel like part of the family. Whether it's while we are watching newscasters like Allison Payne, Tom Skilling or Robert Jordan, or enjoying the Cubs' games, we are happy to welcome them into our homes. And for those people like me who grew up with Bozo, it's WGN we have to thank for bringing this show into our lives.
