Went to Chicago this June for Marla and Scott’s wedding. Took some additional time off before to wander around the city. As you can probably tell from the marque above Conan O’ Brian was in town to tape his show.
Conan folks were all over downtown, particularly the Magnificient Mile. They set up vending machine that they set up to distribute “swag” from the show. You could pick up a card the day before, and then you had to line up in the morning and exchange your card for a change to use the machine and get stuff. They had 4 or 5 of these scattered throughout the downtown area.
Place Visited:
“The Bean” in Grant Park, State Street for some shopping, Magnificent Mile,
