Editing Chicago (section)

===Tips===

The cheapest beer in town is generally PBR (Pabst Blue Ribbon, can be ordered by saying "PBR"), or Old Style. Both can run from $2-$4. While not brewed in Chicago, Old Style is often considered Chicago's Beer because it is popular at baseball and football games. Other local beers include Goose Island ("312" is most often on tap), Berghoff, and suburban gems: Three Floyd's and Two Brother's Brewing Companies.

Speaking of baseball games, day of game tickets can generally be found at the game for real cheap. $10 sometimes. Chicago has two baseball teams the Cubs (Red Line ADDISON) and the Sox (Red Line SOX/35th).  Expect to pay more at for Cubs tickets than for Sox tickets.

Theatre is also something that is always happening in Chicago. There are upwards of 300 different theatre companies, so depending on what you want, you can probably find a play about it. Aside from Chicago's Loop Theatre District, there are a multitude of "Off-Loop" companies for your consideration. Best to consult the [http://www.chicagoreader.com Chicago Reader], an alternative local newspaper, for more information on locations, times, and prices. Larger theatres include: Chicago Shakespeare (on Navy Pier), Steppenwolf (Red Line NORTH/CLYBOURN), Northlight (in the suburb of Skokie), Next Theatre (in Evanston, Purple Line NOYES), Court Theatre (Red Line GARFIELD then #55 Bus east), Lookingglass (Red Line CHICAGO), and The Goodman (Red Line LAKE). But definitely consider checking out a storefront production, often times better value (and better quality). The Theatre Building Chicago is a good bet (Red Line BELMONT, then walk west to Racine.)

Chicago is well-known for its contribution to Improv Comedy.  Check out Second City (North and Wells in Old Town), Improv Olympic  (Clark and Addison in Wrigleyville) and Comedy Sportz (Belmont and Wilson in Boystown).  There are also various weekly comedy shows.  Please check www.metromix.com/chicago for the calendar.
