    Whats up guys.. im heading to Chicago in October for the giants bears game..

      There aren't really any bars close to the field, the nearest bar is probably about a mile walk from the stadium. Tailgating can be a challenge because the closest spots are permit parking. I would say you're best bet is to hang at a bar before the game and take a cab to the filed.

      If we go to a bar before a game, we go to Krolls which is on Michigan and 18th street, but get there early so you have a seat.

      I'm a season ticket holder, our field isn't the best as far as accessibility, but there's not a bad seat in the house IMO.

          I would personally recommend the Billy Goat Tavern

                  The Billy Goat Tavern has a long history in Chicago, and would be worth visiting even if you didn't have a Bears game to go to.

                  Newspaper legends have frequented the place for lunch, dinner, drinks and whatever for decades. It is the inspiration for the "Cheeseburgah! Cheeseburgah! skits in the glory days of Saturday Night Live. And, most sports-related, it was the owner in 1945, Sam Sianis, who was denied entrance to Wrigley Field during the World Series for his pet billy goat. From this the Billy Goat curse was born.
