I will be in chicago on Sat. Dec. 12 and wanted to know if you all can giveme the names of several places I can go and watch the UFC fight.

BJ Penn vs. Sanchez

I assume you all have sports bars or other establishments that carry the fight.

Thanks,

Ted

I haven't watched UFC in the city yet but I know almost all the Buffalo Wild Wings in the general area show them.

If you're in the Hoffman Estates/Schaumburg area, hit up Jersey's Pizza & Grill. No cover and their food is pretty good. I've never been to Champps Americana (Schaumburg & Lombard) for UFC but their food is also legit.

Some Hooters show it to but you better call in advance to double check.

If I can think of any more, I will post it up.

BTW, Penn is gonna kick some ***.

I'm staying on the Southside Midway airport area (hotel) but can travel anywhere.

I have to see this fight as I haven't missed one in 5 years and this card is STACKED.

My boy, Penn is gonna win ............ AGAIN.

I appreciate the info and if anyone else has other locations, I would greatly appreciate the help.

BTW, I LOVE Chicago.
Always something to do and the food is OFF THE CHAIN. Al #1 Italian Beef, the pizza, dogs etc.

Anyone have any food joints that I should absolutely not miss. I like all different types of food. as long as its plentiful, and not too expensive.
Peace,
Ted

Like Jason said, Buffalo Wild Wings is a safe bet for checking out the UFC. There should be plenty around where ever you go.

Portillo's is a pretty cool place to grab hot dogs, Italian beef etc... I love the food there. Some of the locations have a rock & roll diner theme and others are a different flar.

Everyone know's that I am a big fan of Boston Blackies but I don't know if they have a location near Midway.

Have fun.

Theres a Blackies in the city by me (West Loop/Loop).

Chinatown has some great food if you're into that.

ted920

I love Chinese but don;t know where Chinatown is?

Also what places do you recommend in Chinatown? what is particularly good on the menu at these places?

The Bdub's in Downers Grove should be close to you. They will be showing, I am certain.

Chinatown:
Phoenix has good dim sum on the weekends.
Chi Cafe is open til 5AM... good Cantonese food and CHEAP.

That should start you off in the right direction. Just google map them.
