Off to the Windy City tomorrow, going to see the Bears Sunday, is there any where within a 10 minute cab ride from Soldier Field that will be showing the United game?

Not really, I just want to watch the football, and NSC has always provided tip top information when going abroad.

It was advertised on NBC last week as going to be shown so it should be quite easy to find a bar showing it. Have a great time Chicago is a great place to eat and drink.but not to park a car.
I don't think he'll be taking his car.

He didn't say, but I think he is probably going to fly.

I didnt know if like many visitors he was going to hire a car as we did and then paid $100 a day to park at the hotel car park. I must point out we didnt hire the car in Chicago but in Vegas and brother drove to Grand Canyon, Gracelands, Nashville Kentucky and to Ali Museum finishing up in Chicago for flight home, Great 4 weeks. Brother loves driving in USA as it is so easy and relaxing.
Sounds like a great trip. I'm not sure many people visiting Chicago on a city break would hire a car though.

Not sure if you're planning on hiring a skip while you're out there Harty but I believe it's quite tricky to do so.

Check out https://twitter.com/ChicagoSeagulls they have a bar they usually attend and I am sure would be happy to have you come in!
Looks like they're usually at https://twitter.com/AJHudsons a sports bar.

Know the Chicago Seagulls on Twitter watch the games at AJ Hudson's, which is near Wrigley Field and caters to Premier League games every weekend. Unfortunately looks to be nearer 25mins via car, so might not be up your alley as an option.
Will be in Chicago myself in a few weeks for the first time, so will hopefully combine watching the Leicester game there on that weekend along with a tour of Wrigley. Plus Giants @ Bears the following day along with multiple other sporting events during my trip.

Enjoy Wrigley Field - so different to so many modern stadiums - especially as some of the seats are outside the stadium, on top of houses on the other side of the road.
I've described it poorly - you'll understand when you're there!

Always read the question carefully as invariably it holds a clue to the answer ....
I think he will find that the baseball season is already over.
Any sports bar close to Soldier Field will show the game. If it’s not on, just ask and they’ll switch one of the TVs.

I think you described it perfectly - it's just a bonkers stadium! I've never seen terraces built on the roof of houses over the road before! And that's on two sides of the ground. Bizarre. And ****ing freezing in the wind!
