Bring your magnifying glass—but leave the dog at home—for this neo-Vaudevillian act, which
garnered raves in NY before heading west. As you watch the ringmaster coax his tiny acrobats into
leaping through fire and shooting from cannons, you may be left scratching your head...but hopefully nowhere
else.
This annual celebration is appropriately low-key—the movie screens at 8:30pm, with vodka and beer
specials plus a $6 Dude Sandwich (not what you're thinking). They've also thrown some Wii Bowling into the
mix—nice, since your avatar does occasionally get mistaken for Jeff Bridges.
The OTB sports bar bankrolls you 600 imaginary bucks to chase the ponies at their new weekly handicapping
contest. If your horses out-gallop everyone else, you'll collect the real thing in the form of betting
vouchers. Then let it ride on Haymaker in the fourth.
Whether last night's Top Chef finale left you angry, elated or just hungry, pack your best spoon
and get ready to slurp as Chicago's culinary elite go broth to broth for charity. A media panel (including
UrbanDaddy) renders its opinion, but the final verdict rests with you.
You've got your own style, but a bit more Steve McQueen wouldn't hurt. Study the master of cool during
Delilah's weekly Sunday night tribute, debuting with a screening of Papillon. It's a little gritty,
so avail yourself to $2 bourbons if you need a bracer.
