Mayor Daley came under a lot of criticism for shutting that place down, let alone how Meigs Field was closed to begin with.

Interesting, so you think she is specifically targeting the big hearted and sometimes overly trust worthy Jeff?

You're goddam right I was! Those pieces of shit where never going to fly near my lakefront again! If that one pilot knew where the Willis Tower was, we would have had a disaster on our hands!

Just give it a little time. Driving into the city the other day and I mentioned something about the Sears Tower. My 4th grade son had no idea. I pointed it out and he said, "oh, the Willis Tower"

John "Bulldog" Drummond...The retired CBS2 reporter is still alive, although I definitely miss how he said "Chicago."

Biasco Music ads with the bad Sammy Davis Jr. impersonator.

Harry Schmerler, the Singing Ford Dealer.

That Victory Auto Wreckers commercial where the guy from Three Dog Night pulls the door off the car. Oh wait...

Here's a little tidbit for you youngsters.

Big John = Hancock Building
Big Buc = Sears Tower
Big Stan = Standard Oil Building

That Victory Auto Wreckers commercial has been running on Chicago TV since 1984. Same car, same guy who lost the car door off it...

The original "Starbeats Presents What's Happening" radio spots.

Confirmed; Bob Collins was a bad pilot.

I still think that John Howell was a little out of line with the timing of his joke at the roast.

Too early.....then.

He was also Chicago's #1 morning man on 720 WGN Radio until his sudden death many years ago.

How about Norm Van Lier and Lance McCalister.

You mean the one with longtime Chicago promoter Bob Luce? That was long before WCIU became The U in 1995.

That was during a time when 'CIU broadcasted "The Stock Market Observer" live weekdays 8:30A-3:30P back in the day from their former home at the Board of Trade Building. They also used to also air daily horse racing returns, along with Spanish-language telenovelas & noticias in prime time.

If that's not enough, weekends featured religious programming, as well as other programming for other ethnic communities such as Greek, Japanese, Chinese & Indian. I'm not making this up! U'z aired all that back in the day...

Yep. I really don't like the homogenization of wrestling. My grade school Saturday nights were 5 o'clock mass followed by a gyros from Nick's enjoyed in front of that league from Texas with the Von Erichs.
