Great. I watched the LSU/Oregon game there. Waitresses constantly walking around refilling drinks. Reasonably priced. Good game day specials!

Definitely go there if you are in Chicago

FYI, that is no longer the LSU Alumni bar. It is now The Standard on North Milwaukee in Wicker Park. I posted another thread on the topic earlier today.

I went there and had a great time last year when I was in Chicago for work. You can tell it's an LSU bar year round from all of the decorations on the wall. Good time!

Standard is great. I miss Gamekeepers because I had personal relationships with the owner and the staff...but Standard is a really nice place and they took good care of us last Saturday. And I heard good things about the Oregon game.

so wait, which bar is it now? the posts above are suggesting both Gamekeepers and The Standard are the place for LSU games now. Will either one have the game turned up loudly so I can hear it?

I'll be in town for the Florida game, the Auburn game, the Bama game...

We look forward to seeing you this football season at Standard Bar and Grill, 1332 N. Milwaukee Ave.

Not only will the game be turned up but there will usually be trumpet player or two playing the 'fight song'.

You'll like it - When I can't make it to Baton Rouge, I'm usually there. I'm working in Tampa tomorrow and won't be able to make it over to Chicago. Have fun.

Possibly, man. I know a few of the people in LSU Chicageaux. Becca will remember me from the crawfish boil in the spring and I will leave it at that because the end of the night was a drunken blur

Maybe I'll start introducing myself with my screen name on here
