I'm gonna come and not announce my presence and lurk in the shadows and try to guess who's who.

But really though. I'm coming.

jw131985:

What is the parking situation at this place? If the weather cooperates I am thinking of driving down from Milwaukee.

Street Parking is a moderate challenge and costs $6.00/hour, but is doable, especially on the lower level.

If in doubt you can park in the Aon Center Garage which is one block east. It's $6 all night if you get there by 6PM, otherwise $13. Give yourself plenty of time to get there as you'll need to find Lower Columbus Drive and Lakeshore East can be a bit confusing. (To make it easy, get off at Ohio and take Fairbanks/Columbus Dr south from Ohio until you go over the bridge and under the underpass.)

Reservations are in (albeit for a small table to gather around)- see you all tomorrow.

 

Shout out to @IlliniProgrammer for setting it up. I met a lot of cool people last night, plus the one female that showed. Probably 1 more than any NY/LA sausage meet up, so there.

Let's do this again, regularly. I'm looking forward to meeting you all and more next time.

Great times. Jw131985 braved rush hour traffic to drive down here from Milwaukee. Also had a lot of fun chatting with Onemanwolfpack, Cries, lots of trading, HF and PE people, including meeting a trader from my firm out of the blue, and students from UIC, DePaul, and UChicago.

We will have to do this again. If I don't hear from anyone or if Cries does not beat me to it, the next one will probably be in early January, around the same time on a Thursday, somewhere between LaSalle, Michigan, Congress and the River.
