EDIT: As mentioned in the thread below, I had to change the venue. Sorry for confusion. The happy hour will now be at Emerald Loop. The info displayed above is now correct.
Parking for Emerald Loop: Sidestreet likely available along Lake street, which is 1 block south of the bar. Lake is a 1-way street, with L tracks overhead. Best shot is grabbing a spot under the tracks.
Will be there.

is this a monthly thing? would like to attend but am going to be in NYC for my firm's holiday party that day
I can think of a small group of people who would probably vote for it to be monthly (or possibly even more frequent), but I'm not sure how the rest of the 20+ people who attended last month feel about it.
I go down to Houston to visit the family for Christmas that day, or else I would be there. Too bad I'll miss it... the last one was awesome.
Set one up for January (not the weekend of the 16th) and I'll be there.
I'll be there.
I'll be there.
Didn't realize there was such an active community in Chicago, will be out of town for work, but would love to do one sometime
Been more of a lurker on here...but just moved to Chicago a few months ago with a company. Is this open to anyone?
Also a lurker here, first post, it will be interesting to meet some Chicago professionals
Just sayin
Cant wait: ill be there
i'm a pretty new wso user and this is the first time I've heard of this event. I am from chicago, currently attending a non-target and am trying to get my foot in the door in IB. is this a networking event?
Ah yeah! Ballers from Citadel, GTCR, Madison Dearborn, Booth, just having drinks while chatting up gorgeous midwestern blondes. What a sight to behold!
Which is a sight to behold...the ballers or the blondes
Is anyone actually attracted to the 'wholesome' midwestern aesthetic?
IMO, Chicago has hotter girls than NYC.
In order to compete with those elite dudes I will be driving my rusty honda there. The streetside parking will be great for showing off my awesome ride, and I have a state of the art security system on it to prevent theft. (I get nervous about street parking.)
Does anyone know if the bar sells Old Style or PBR? Or am I stuck with Goose Island?
I'm going, I really enjoyed the last one but wasn't able to stick around long enough
and @"IlliniProgrammer" if they don't serve Old Style then we should just split a six pack and slip it in the laptop bags.
i wana meet this @"IlliniProgrammer" dude
Will try to swing by tonight
Wish I could attend you boys have fun... and it is not a real bar if they don't have Old Style or PBR.
FYI, I had to change the venue due to reservation problems. Sorry to spring this on you guys same-day, and hopefully you all get the message. I just notified the WSO team, and hopefully they can get everything updated.
New Venue: Emerald Loop. Located at 216 North Wabash (corner of Wabash & Haddock).
Time is still 6:30pm.
Directions are the same. Ask for WSO group when you arrive. We will have a few high-top tables near the bar area.
Parking: Sidestreet likely available along Lake street, which is 1 block south of the bar. Lake is a 1-way street, with L tracks overhead. Best shot is grabbing a spot under the tracks.
Sorry for the confusion, all.
Keep your golddigging NY girls and your flat foldy pizza, only irrational Chicago love should be allowed on this thread.
damn, totally missed this cause of the location change.
Zach,
I dont know your username, but I totally bought your last drink because the waitress forgot to charge you until after you left and wouldnt let us leave until someone covered your tab.
You owe me a beer in Jan.
LOL
I don't recall any bitching. And the $7 was money I had saved on my bill because Emerald Loop gives a holiday bonus on gift cards. I was shocked and appalled that I was the only person to take advantage.
I still have $3 left on it. I'll be keeping the card in my rusty Honda to pay for a PBR next time.
You should have spent it on a can of PBR. :). Nice seeing you again btw.
I wasn't there. Is there a Goldie impersonator?
