    I just tried a search, and nobody's posted anything about it for the past three months?
    Anyone else looking foreward to the Chi-town "kruze"?

    The cruise happens in a long long loop on LSD, from 8-10 am this Saturday

    Then there's a show in one of Soldier Field's parking lots-or in a bunch of them if they have enough cars.

    I can't imagine there won't be a bunch of cars there-since this is the densest area in IL. I am pretty sure there are a bunch of car clubs around here too.

    The cruise is free, the show will cost $4.00 to enter.

    This is lifted straight from their site:

    "While the Kruze is free and open to all road-approved vehicles, there is a $20 registration fee to participate in the show at Soldier Field and it is limited to the first 750 "pre-1980" cars. The car show portion is open to spectators for only $5 and children under 12 are free! There will be ample parking for both participants and spectators-for more information call 773.622.6445 ext. 13. The Kruze begins at 8am and lasts until 10am. The Car Show runs from 11am to 3pm."


    $20.00 seems a little steep, but they do have to pay "Chicago"* prices to pull this off.

    *Chicago prices:corruption, pay to play, cronyism, etc-which means "upcharge"!

    Anyway, who's going??? :3gears:

    There is also this on Saturday too (didn't know about)

    This is on their homepage:

    located at 11541 South Pulaski Road, Alsip, Illinois

    Alsip, is, according to mapquest, about half an hour South-West of Chicago.

    That would be sweet-all the Buicks that are at the Chicago show actually cruise for real to Alsip!


    So if you want to come in to Chi-town on Saturday, you could spend almost all day cruisin' with a few car people!

    Wish I didn't have to work in the afternoon. :spank:
