Six Flags is a good hour drive north of the city...so take that into account. If you are staying downtown, Navy Pier is the most popular tourist destination in the city, take a shoreline sightseeing boat ride (the Sea Dog is the "go-fast" option). Right there along the lakefront, you have the Museum Campus....Field Museum of Natural History, Shedd Aquarium, and Adler Planetarium. Maggie Daley Park is brand new, featuring rock climbing walls that just opened. If you want to catch a game, you have the Sox on the south side and the Cubs on the north side...tickets should be pretty easy to come by...almost ALWAYS available at Sox games. Go up to the observation deck in either the Willis (formerly Sears) Tower or the John Hancock building. On the water, you can do kayak tours of the Chicago River, or rent a bike and ride the lakefront path along the beaches.
Oh...and get yourself a deep dish pizza. Giordano's is one of my favorites.

[QUOTE=s022mag;4317402]If it was me I'd take whatever outer belt goes around the city and site see from a safe distance.

Probably a smart idea for a Lebron fan to keep his distance from that hood. Good thinkin' Matt!
