The city of Chicago represents the largest city located in the state of Illinois, but also the third largest city in the US. This city is renowned for its beautiful architecture and has a history marked by important events, not all of them so happy.
If you are searching for Chicago on a map, you should search between the Mississippi River and the Great Lakes because that is where you will find it. Due to its location, it has rapidly grown into a major transportation hub, but it also represents the cultural, financial and business capital of the Midwest.
The first skyscraper ever to be built emerged in 1885 in the northeast corner of Adams and LaSalle streets. Erected on a steel skeleton, it had ten levels, a basement and nine stories, but in 1890 two additional stories increased the building’s height. In 1931, this building was demolished in order to make room for the Field building, currently known under the name LaSalle bank building.
Enough about history! Today’s Chicago is home to other more impressive buildings and structures, some related to different areas of interest. Since everyone likes sports, why not say a few words about the structures related to popular interests?
Americans enjoy lots of sports. Some enjoy football, others baseball, some basketball and so on. Purchasing Chicago Cubs tickets will allow you to visit one of the greatest baseball fields ever to be built and the home of the current champions of the Major League of Baseball.
The destination of the Chicago Cubs tickets is Wrigley Field. It was first built in 1914 and has been the home for the Cubs since 1916. The surrounding establishments, consisting of bars, restaurants and others like that, are commonly referred to as Wrigleyville.
The original version of Wrigley Field could house 14 thousand spectators. However, since 2006, the baseball fans which purchase Chicago Cubs tickets enter an improved stadium that has a capacity of over 40 thousand people, 41118 to be more exact.
While we are on the subject of sports, baseball is not the only one with performance throughout the US. Football is also a sport that doesn’t lack good representation in this city. If you purchase Chicago Bears tickets, you will have the chance to view the 2006 NFC Champions in action.
The club was founded in 1919, in Decatur, Illinois, but moved to Chicago in 1921. During the 1970 season, if you purchased Chicago Bears tickets, you would have gone to Wrigley field to watch the games. Since 1971, except for the 2002 season, Soldier Field has been the home for this team.
The original design of the stadium could house about 100 thousand people, but the numbers got smaller. Renovations were made in order to get the spectators closer to the field at the expense of seat numbers. Nowadays, there are 61500 Chicago Bears tickets available for a game.
Going to the stadiums to purchase Chicago Bears and Chicago Cubs tickets is still practiced today, but there is a more comfortable solution. Going online to ticketamerica.com will give you access to Chicago Cubs and Chicago Bears tickets at unbelievable prices.

Can I ask you something
By: voterperson | 01-07-2008
Can I ask you something is Darla reading into this and can she accept Phyllis?s answer when Phyllis said that Darla is thin and thin everywhere?Phyllis and Darla went to see a movieWhen they were on the bus going home Phyllis saw a girl on flag outside a Karate school in a bikini. And Phyllis said "IF you take Karate you can look like her too". Phyllis clarified YOU as meaning people in general. Darla thought she meant that Phyllis did not think Darla was thin so Darla asked Phyllis if Phyllis thought Darla is thin and she said the following:(1) You are on the thin side(2) Yes you can accept the fact you are thin(3) But she also said "You have a thin face" and Darla said to Phyllis "But I am thin every where" and she replied yes you are(4) I have a friend that is thinner than us(5) No one would ever call you fatDarla asked Phyllis if I had made the remark about "If you do Karate you can look like her too" and Phyllis said she would have laughed.When they got off the bus at Chevy Chase Darla said to Phyllis that people tell Darla that Darla does not look like she eats and Phyllis said that she would not go that far. So Darla asked Phyllis what she meant and Phyllis said "you are not anorexic" Darla told Phyllis that she doesn?t want to be"Darla is over the part about the Karate. But Darla keeps saying to herself if Phyllis just said "yes you are thin" then Darla would not have pursued it. But when they were sitting on the bus and Phyllis said "you have a thin face" which made Darla feel as if Phyllis did not think Darla was thin all over, HOWEVER, when Darla said ?I am thin all over? PHYLLIS AGREED. But also getting off the bus Darla said that ppl tell Darla that she doesn?t look like Darla eats and Phyllis said "I wouldnt go that far" so Darla said "You mean I am not anorexic" and Phyllis said "Yes, you look healthy" and Darla asked Phyllis if Phyllis thinks Phyllis looks healthy and she said Yes I feel that I look healthy.Also Darla?s cousin Beth told Darla when Darla told Beth the story: NO ONE WOULD EVER MISTAKE YOU FOR BEING ANYTHING OTHER THAN THINWhen Darla told Phyllis that everyone says I am skinny she replied: "Well it is better than every one telling you that you are fat"THEN TWO DAYS LATER ON THE PHONE PHYLLIS CONFIRMED THAT SHE THINKS DARLA IS THIN
