Have you been to the suburbs?

Here's the part that's actually pretty jacked up, if you're a Bears fan.

The Rolling Meadows mayor has not been in a conversation.

Palatine's mayor has not been in a conversation.

I'm going to say something that's probably maybe not the most politically correct thing to say as the mayor of the city of Chicago.

Getting in and out...

of Soldier Field is an absolute nightmare.

Let me tell you how bad it is.

Bears versus Packers.

I'm at the game.

We're losing.

I decide to leave to beat the traffic.

Before I get out of the footprint, the Bears had come back to win.

The ingress-egress part, that's what we have to fix.

In the other locations, they don't even have the basic fundamentals to do things like the sewage, the weight of that many people coming through there, not to mention ingress-egress.

They have not even solved what we have already established, the ability to actually host large-scale events.

The only thing that we need for our infrastructure is ingress, egress.

We need that regardless, right?

The museum campus as a whole benefits from it.

Look, Chicagoans want to watch the bears in Chicago.
