    I'm looking for old photos as our pitcher, who typically through 1 or no hitters passed away at 49 last week.

    Does this building have its age? Yes. Does it take away from the overall experience? Not for me. I…read moreagree with others here that it is nice to have a venue like this outside the city that still has a lot of top acts and shows to see. I have attended many different events here throughout my life. Chicago Wolves games, Walking With Dinosaurs, Monster Jam, Trans-Siberian Orchestra and WWE Smackdown. I do agree that the place could use some upgrades, but it still gets the job done. Concessions are bit overpriced, but not the worst quality in my opinion. The dogs and pizzas are good, and the cotton candy can't be missed. Popcorn is okay. The staff are usually nice, but the ushers can sometimes be a 50/50 shot between super sweet and a grump. Lots of good memories here, and hoping for more soon.

It was Connie's Pizza and the slice was lukewarm So bad that the cheese hardened and cracked across the middle. $10.00 a slice !!! Next time I'll just wait and go to Connie's in Chinatown, where it's Hot and Fresh The girl ( section 112 - 114 ) gave me the slice and looked at me , I gave her the look back and was like ok whatever. There were better slices available and I didn't want to be that person but now I'm understanding some of why people do what they do. Did you really have to give me The F Up slice ? You have your reason and now your getting this review. Buddy at the register had to be reminded about my water. These people don't want to work and hate their jobs ( ^ x ^ )

This was the first time my 6.5 year old son tried it and he was able to use a skate assistant sled. Unfortunately, the usage time is limited for others to use as well. And if a person didn't return theirs in the 20 minute slot, noone bothered going out to get it. So we patiently waited A few weeks later we go back here for a birthday party. I think we had an hour in the room and another hour on the rink. Not bad, but we felt rushed in the room eating & cake. Then, at the ice rink they had FOUR skate assistant sleds for us to use. Now, it's a party with about 20 kids, most of whom haven't skated before. So 'sharing' the sled was an issue. I asked someone that worked there if we could borrow more (because I know that had more & they weren't being used on the other side), but she said we are only allowed 4. Boo!

    I came here to try ice skating for the first time in 25 years. Open skating fees and skate rental…read morefees are comparable to other arenas in the area. But, the perk here is that they don't charge more for non-residents to skate, so if you're bringing non-local friends, they won't have to pay more than you (unlike Evanston and other skating rinks). I do wish that they had some sort of pass card though like Evanston and Wilmette rinks both offer. Their website is a bit dated and confusing, but I sent them a message on Facebook to confirm their public skate hours and they got back to me within minutes, which was nice. They also have skate sharpening, which I definitely need before I try skating again (but haven't used that service yet). The rink itself is nice. It wasn't too crowded when I went during the week a week before Christmas, and the skaters I did meet were friendly. The woman at the desk was helpful as well. I'll definitely come back.

We were told a shuttle bus would take us to the stadium from the Central Station Purple Line. Even after being picked up and dropped off, it was a 5-8 minute walk to the stadium. There was signage to show us where to go, otherwise we just followed people around us. The directions are to get off at Noyes and walk 20 minutes. I wonder if shuttles will be available during the regular season. Of course the residential/campus areas were swamped with cars so walking is probably better. We got through security no problem, no hassles, but they should have more gates and detectors if they are going to have games here! There were food trucks and booths with alcohol, merch tents, Porto Potties (heck no!) and tents selling food that was of course overpriced. It was a very nice day, cloudy with sun and dry; I can IMAGINE what it's like when it rains! NO indoor spaces to buy food, except a couple of huge tents? I was expecting a Soldier Field/Wrigley field structure where one can move to seats and stay inside but really stacked bleachers. The food trucks were ok but food was not super hot. The field had timers and score boards but not facing south, where we sat. We had to crane to see the score. There should be scoreboards on all sides. We found some indoor restrooms at half time thank goodness, and they were clean. Instead of going back to the seats we walked around and bought more concessions in the patio area. A medical company was giving away prizes, and we were able to see the scores on a big tv (Stars won!) plus there was a play area for kids. The lake view was very nice, I'm glad the Stars are pushing the lakefront attribute, but I can't say I would look forward to coming here regularly, esp as the weather becomes very hot or very cold, as there is no protection from the elements.

    Honestly for a temporary stadium, you can't beat this venue! The location is beautiful - right on…read morethe water and you can see the Chicago skyline on a clear day. Everything ran smoothly (again keeping a temporary situation in mind) and they still ran a good concessions business. Excited for the new stadium but definitely worth coming to a game while they're still playing at Martin Stadium!

    Sat in section 106 row B seat 9 for reference. It's a fairly…read moresmall arena which is nice because you get a good view from almost any seat you choose. The downside? Drink prices here are through the roof (which is to be expected but still kinda annoying). I paid $36 for 2 cans of modelos. Most sections had no security so there were many people who kept seat hoping. It was mainly an issue for people who had front row seats since people would sneak into your spot if you left to use the restroom, to the bar, etc.. they'd move out of your spot once you returned but it's still annoying to have to repetitively do that if you need to leave for a short period of time. Overall it's not a bad arena.

There wasn't much direction on which line to stand in -- some lines were obvious, but there was also a long line off to the side with zero explanation. That mystery line? Turns out it's for bag check. My crossover bag was very, very, very slightly oversized (like... come on ), and I had to leave the main line, check my bag in a locker, get a code, then get back in the main line again. Of course, this also meant waiting again after the game to retrieve it. Super inconvenient. Inside, the arena is pretty standard, just smaller. I went to see the Chicago vs. Dallas WNBA game -- I had literally just landed in Chicago and was looking for something to do that night. I mainly went to see Angel Reese, but honestly, I wasn't super impressed. Arike Ogunbowale, though? That girl can HOOP. She definitely caught my eye. I'm from Texas, so I found myself cheering for both the Dallas Wings and Angel Reese... somehow that math still worked. Overall, decent arena experience, but clearer signage and a little grace with bag sizes would go a long way. I didn't eat any arena food because I planned to go to Portillo's after the game.

From the ivy-covered outfield walls to the hand-operated scoreboard, it feels like you're stepping into a different era of baseball. If you're someone who appreciates the roots of the game, this place delivers in a way newer stadiums just can't replicate. The seating is part of that uniqueness too. It's not your typical modern setup, and that's both a pro and a con. Some sections feel incredibly close to the action, almost like you're part of the game. But because of the stadium's age, there are support beams (poles) that can block your view if you're not careful with your seats. It's part of the old-school charm, but definitely something to be aware of when booking so you don't end up with an obstructed view. What really adds to the experience is everything around the stadium in Wrigleyville. The whole neighborhood feels like an extension of the ballpark--bars, restaurants, and crowds of fans all flowing together before and after the game. It's lively without feeling overwhelming, and it makes the whole outing more than just a game--it's an event. Overall, between the history, the unique character, and the atmosphere inside and outside the park, this is an easy 5 star experience and a must-visit if you're into baseball or iconic venues.

The Windy City Bulls wore Philippine themed jerseys which was pretty cool. Throughout the night they celebrated or talked about the Philippines and the history. They opened with the Philippine National Anthem followed by the United States National Anthem. For the first 2,000 fans, they gave away a toy Jeepney and if you wanted a special hat, you had to purchase it with the admission ticket. The game was entertaining and the Bulls won! What I really loved about it was it was very kid friendly and all the kids loved it. The were really involved and were into the game! The big screen and score was not over the court like most arenas, but it was off to the side. The benefit of that was the screen was bigger than the normal over the court screen. Overall, I really liked the arena, the game and the way they made it kid focused. What a great way to get the younger kids to love Bulls basketball. Parking was free and it took sometime to get out but once you got past the main lot entry, it was smooth sailing (unless you were trying to get to the 90 Interstate. I would go to another game for sure! I highly recommend going if you have little ones that loves basketball.

I think I might have been here once when I lived in West Ridge a mile away. They have facilities for baseball, basketball, and soccer, as well as a 9-hole golf course (waaaaay on the northeast side of the park, at the corner of Pratt and Ridge), and tennis courts that double as pickleball courts. There's a path that runs through the park as well so you can walk or job, but I also saw people riding bikes on it when I was here. In wintertime, they have an ice rink. You can play cricket here, racquetball, and there are three playgrounds. The field house is large too. There's a gymnasium and the Northtown Garden Society operates out of here. I was surprised to see the garden club because I had been curious if there was one around here but couldn't find one. I'm sure one of if not their major project is the maintenance of the Warren Park community garden, which is between Western Avenue and the field house. Near the field house, on its south side, is a work of public art that doubles as a place to sit and take a load off. The history of Warren Park is a particularly interesting one and combines the politics of Chicago. The land was once the Edgewater Golf Course, a privately owned course. It was purchased and the community soon learned that the developers wanted to put a high rise and shopping center here. It was indeed re-zoned by the city when community efforts failed, and those groups (called the Allied North Side Community Organizations) appealed to the governor, who signed legislation making it a state park to preserve the open land, calling it the "first major state park in Illinois created in an urban area". The state only purchased about a third of it, though, and the remaining land was still undergoing development, much to the dismay of the surrounding community. Is the end, the Chicago Park District chose to condemn it and turn it into parkland, and the state transferred its property to the city. This park as a very large parking lot, which is good since there are so many activities here. There are bathroom facilities inside the field house as well. The field house and playgrounds are accessible, and depending upon one's accessibility needs other areas of the park may be as well.
