Quote from Julian...
"I received a message from the ANA and there will be a 52 passenger bus to take participants from Rosemont to downtown Chicago each day, probably during the WFM, 8/16-9, 7-11pm. This is being sponsored by Harlan J. Berk."
Just a bus ride away...

Our spectacular fireworks displays light up your nights with color and sound all summer long! Join us for another season of fireworks, fun and entertainment at Navy Pier!
Wednesdays @ 9:30 pm
Saturdays @ 10:15 pm
"Heading directly onto Lake Michigan, a brilliant array of lights will come to life along the skyline. After a stunning sunset and relaxing trip along the lakefront, the boat will enter Monroe Harbor for a front row seat for the Buckingham Fountain Water and Lights Show." Full cash bar on board!
Nor is the outbound at 11pm a guaranteed walk in the park.
The truth is, Chicago is a great city whose convention centers all stink in one way or another.
If you want to enjoy the city, Priceline a downtown hotel on the weekend. You can get a good deal and it is very pleasant.
But if you want to drive there after hanging out at Rosemont all day you may in for more than you bargained.
Let's instead look to the event like kid's on Christmas Eve ,
and let's let the excitement and anticipation build to a fevered frenzy as we await the Greatest Show on Earth !
........it will indeed be FANTASTIC !!
Brothers, I hate to pee on your love fest of downtown Chicago, but there have been reports of roving gangs accosting tourists on Michigan Avenue. So be careful.
Edited for: dumbazz spelling
But at the end of the day, there will always be negatives about a particular convention city. Imho, Chicago, and even Rosemont are not bad places to hold a show (there are plenty worse!!!!)

it's the Show itself that I'm dreaming of .
And each day it draws closer , the more the anticipation builds and the more excited I become
Not so sure if buses on I94 during weekday evenings are a good idea. You can probably make it over to the Loop on the L a lot faster than you can in a vehicle.

Apparently not.
