I took this photo of these thirsty Chicagoans about 45 minutes ago outside Durkin's, a popular North Side bar. They're in line for shuttle bus rides to this afternoon's South Side Irish Parade. Yesterday was Chicago's St. Patrick's Day Parade, that takes place downtown.
Both parades, but particularly the South Side Irish Parade, are known for ample consumption of "liquid."
Next Tuesday there is a primary election in Illinois, expect a lot of politicians on parade on Chicago's South Side this afternoon. Let's hope for their sake the people in attendance aren't too, shall I say, "spirited."
