What should I do during the Super Bowl?

Question

Don't say, "Watch the Super Bowl."

I hit on this idea in college. During the Super Bowl, where will everyone be? They will have their butts parked on the couch, which means they won't be out and about creating crowds everywhere. Since I have absolutely no interest in watching football, this is the perfect time to go and do something that I would otherwise avoid because of crowds.

What is a great place to go in Chicago that would normally be choked with crowds on a Sunday afternoon?

Answer 1

Any of the museums (Art institute, Field Museum, Museum of Science and Industry, etc.). It's going to be cold so there aren't too many outdoor activities to do, other than say skating at Millenium Park. You could go to the bar at the Signature Room on the top of the John Hancock Building. i don't think they have TVs up there, so there won't be a crowd up there watching the game.

Answer 2

Not too many crowds on a cold Sunday in February, but the best bet is the museums:
The Art Institute of Chicago
Museum of Science and Industry
Field Museum (Natural History)
Shedd Aquarium
Adler Planetarium

Answer 3

If I were in CHI, I'd go to the Sears tower and hang out on the observation deck. Probably won't be much of a line to get up there.

Then, I'd go to Goose Island for a beer or two, when the game was over.

Answer 4

I would probably stay away from the Downtown area all together because most fans will probably migrate there incase the Bears do win, especially around Soldier Field. Therefore, I would probably go to one of the many wonderful shopping areas or just stay at home and see if there is anything else on t.v.

Answer 5

drink beer and invite your friend to a super bowl party

Answer 6

i would go to a mall there will be not to many people there
