gompka,

I bet you $5 that if you cruise on Belmont Ave. with a Polish flag you will get ticketed by our lovely Chicago cops. These assh*les don't have any respect for Polish community.
Two years ago, or so, I heard the story about a cop car that got very close to a moving vehicle in which a girl in the back seat was holding a Polish flag and the cop on the passenger seat ripped the flag from the girl's hand, while both vehicles were moving. Of course every year cops pull the cars over when they see the Polish flag and ticked them. Interesting enough it never happens to other big foreign communities in Chicago.

yea there was a big thing about the ******* cops a couple years ago but last 2 times I have gone its been all good. I usually cruise the friday before, cause there aren't many cops, and on saturday too. As long as you don't pound too hard or burnout or anything you should be okay.

I will, unless something unexpected comes up. Believe me I don't want to miss seeing all these turbo SCs, and others.

Yeah the meet will be on for sure... We can meet in the parking garage and go up a couple of levels and we will be ok covered if it rains. Otherwise we will go into gameworks, eat and drink and wait till the weather clears up..

I'm sure my brother ("blackened") is coming, he lives downtown @ Marquette campus. I'll let him know that the Milwaukeeans are planning on coming on "convoy"... I don't mind joining you guys too, I'm from Madison WI
