I copyied this from another forum so i hope its ok to post, I WILL BE ATTENDING THIS EVENT i know there are some people that might be close to it and want to go so im posting this.


EVENT: got3800.com Takes on the 2009 Auto Show!!!

DATE: 11:00am / Febuary 14, 2009 spots in the back of the GP available if anyone wants to ride in with us.)

WHY: Because we love cars. lol

WEBSITES: http://www.chicagoautoshow.com/

Location: I will be parking in Parking Lot B (SHOWN HERE: http://www.mccormickplace.com/pdf/StreetMap.pdf) which is very easy to get to. Take Lake Shore Drive South till you hit the exit for E.31st St. get off and take a hairpin turn right which will take you on the street that the parking lot is on (Moe Dr. i believe). FYI Parking is typical around $15.....so car pool...lol

It is 5 hours and 15 minutes from my place. If it is Saturday then I'm all over for this for sure. Since it is Sunday. I don't think I won't able make it because I have job on Monday.

Be sure you ask your girlfriend/wife (if you have one) for "permission" to go car show because it is Feb. 14th. lol

After see the list of cars. I see Pontiac G8 Sport truck. I'm not sure if it still around. If you see it then take picture for us. I'm sure we would like to see "real" G8 truck.

Have fun guys! laugh

I'd go with you guys but I usually go on Sundays and get there right when it opens to avoid the crowds. I might be able to hook you guys up with some free tickets if you want them but I'll have to let you know a little closer to actual date to see if I'll have any or not.

A great time to go is right after the lunch crowd leaves. Between 3 and 4. Works great for me each and every year.

Sorry, I thought it was Sunday. Feb. 14th is on Saturday. Feb. 15th is on Sunday. Feb. 15th is no good for me. Why? Daytona 500! Nascar is back! lol

Actually, it was little mess up plan because I didn't know Indianapolis car show have same date as Chicago. I'm planning to go Indianapolis car show on Feb. 14th so I won't be around.
