One thing I do love though...when packer fans talk about "going to the city", they mean Chicago.

It is their weekend getaway, it is their kids field trips, it is their vacation.
I just wanted to make sure Chicago wasn't losing all their money to embezzlement like Minneapolis. I know Chicago has a moron mayor with a 6 percent approval. Illinois has a fat worthless Governor named
JB back ribs. Saying GB has ownership over the Indiana Bears just don't sound right.🤔

Local guy here. Gary and Hammond IN are bad, bad places. You can thank our 1990s for selling out our manufacturing, officially putting the nail in the coffin in once proud steel cities.

The region itself is very prosperous. Most of it full of people living in IN but working in Chicagoland. I sincerely doubt the stadium would go in Gary. But I bet the land would be cheap, so maybe??

Chicago has terrible politics and the governor is straight up stealing from the tax payers. The love of the city keeps people there like battered wives. It is a great city - it’s just expensive and led by corruption.

Gary and Hammond were in steep decline way before the 1990s.

I am not sure if Chicago even has anymore money to embezzle, I feel like they have taken it all!

The stupid alderman system they have makes it soooooo much more corrupt.

Holy crap, a stadium in Gary would need to have a 12 foot razor wire fence around it just like the elementary schools there. Scary Gary is not a place where it feels good to be. Highway 30 goes through it, it was interesting because there would be a string of abandoned house then all of a sudden one that was lived in and looked nice. It would breathe life into the long decaying city.
