    Wow, I thought some of the marketing this year was very Frank Frazetta-like, didn't imagine it was actually him.

    Yeah, I thought some of the artwork looked super familiar. And now it makes sense I had seen these images before:

    The art on the scratch off tickets too.

    That's a badass label. Can't really appreciate the artwork with FFF's full bottle shot post. Here is a zoomed in version (the artist's original art shared above is even more impressive).

    Been a while since I've attended (7,8 years?) and I'm wondering if Uber/Lyft is a reasonable option these days. Probably heading back up to the Loop after we're done.

    If anyone has done this successfully I would love to know. Cheers!

    My group took an Uber to and from DLD from Logan Square last year without issue.

    True story. Plan to do it again this year, too.

    FFF shared some additional details on the Dark Lord Whiskey. tl;dr $67 a bottle and not sold at DLD. Pick one up on the 14th at the retail kiosk for your DLD line sharing needs.

    No, the zero ruins it for me. $666 a bottle (or $6.66 a shot) or GTFO (or in this case, RTFU!). :laughing:

    It's viable, but you might catch some nasty surge pricing on the return trip. Might get your rating dinged/extra charges depending on how sloppy your drunks are too.

    Map is on their socials, basically the same setup as usual.

    Does anyone remember the deal on Wheel of Death? At least one of my drunk friends will probably do it.

    Isn’t something like pay $25 and a 3 hour wait in line to spin the wheel for a DL, variant or fake license plate?

    would probably be smart to add a few more wheels this year
