Fly out of Philly, get a hotel near O’Hare with a free shuttle to train station and take the train to Evanston. We did that several years ago. About an hour train ride.
I wanted to drive to Glenview on Friday, party with my bros, Saturday noon game then see a band, on the road 6am Sunday. We spent lots of time walking the “beach” at northwestern then head south, great view of Chicago. I was pumped to go to this game
