Hoops, anything good going on Saturday?

This coming Saturday?

Well, one thing I would stay away from is Wrigleyville. All those bars on Clark are doing a Chicago Mardi Gras festival, which will be a disaster.

Not sure what secondary prices are looking like, but Hamilton has a couple shows on Saturday.

In terms of events, not sure what else is happening.

We'll see if there are any changes in weather, but it looks cold and windy on Saturday. Those are the types of days that I like to go to a couple breweries. Maplewood is fun, but it's a smaller space and can get crowded on Saturday. Half Acre has the Balmoral and North Center taprooms. Balmoral is bigger, but I prefer North Center. You could head to GI (Fulton Market) and grab a couple vintage BCS bottles for on-site consumption. If you did want to do a bit of shopping/walking with beers in-between, Corridor is a good option along Southport. Logan Square

Otherwise, happy to toss out a few bar/restaurant ideas. Let me know.
