I live on the south side of Chicago (just west of little village) and I have never heard so many gunshots over the course of 3 hours last night. Nothing but that, fireworks, car horns and police sirens until 3 am.

The Chicago Fire Department said 35 people were transported to hospitals overnight. Most of their injuries were minor. CFD also said there were several 911 calls made for alcohol-related issues.

The Office of Emergency Management and Communications said 14 people were arrested overnight for disorderly and reckless conduct.

Sounds like things didnt get too out of hand later on either.

They had "Steal a Base, Steal a Taco" so they figured they'd get something pretty drat impressive if they stole a Taco Bell

Why is there no pictures/video of people carrying the taco bell sign? Has everyone forgotten how to internet?

and you posted no pictures :argh:

I really don't take many pictures when I'm out. I tried to take a picture of all the cops in front of the marquee but it was so foggy that they didn't turn out at all. I highly regret not taking a picture of the Taco Bell full of police officers, though. I've failed us all. :negative:

We moved to my buddy's front lawn on Racine for some post game celebration. We saw tons of people streaming down the streets and high fived basically everyone. But by the time we walked back up toward Wrigley around 2 am, there weren't any people pulling down light poles or Taco Bell signs anymore. Just the aftermath. Some news trucks, some cops in Taco Bells and some street sweepers moving tons of trash around.

Apparently the only things broken were a Taco Bell sign and some egos. Baseball fans confirmed most boring fans.

Enthusiasms, enthusiasms...

The giant Taco Bell sign was still there when I walked past it. Maybe it's a small one from the drive-thru or window?

One of the arrests was for a guy who was flying a drone and crashed it.

Is there an ordinance against drone flying in Chicago or did he crash it into something that caused the arrest?

WELL THAT JUST HAPPENED!

The memorial graffiti on the left center field wall is the most :unsmith: part of last night's celebration. I hope the Cubs take steps to preserve it in some form.

A city that was to live by night after the wilderness had passed. A city that was to forge out of steel and blood-red neon its own peculiar wilderness.
