mtlfan Posted May 25, 2007 Report Share Posted May 25, 2007 Can someone explain to this uneducated Canadian what the difference is between Chicago and Chicagoland? Does Chicagoland include all the suburb towns, possibly? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now I know where to go to shop if I ever get to Chicago! Funny how you blast the Canadian bands when driving and I blast the American ones. We should meet at the border someday and confuse everyone. :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Born in Chicago, lived there until I got married, then for many years I lived in the northwest suburbs. While much farther south now (opposite end of the state)...I will ALWAYS consider Chicago and Chicagoland my home. HIP...wow I have not been to the actual mall there for at least 15 years. Woodfield baby!!!! LOL Liz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Da Guy Well, both of you look out, because I'm going to Chicagoland in July as a birthday gift to myself!!! I'll be visiting a friend and I CAN'T WAIT!!! We're going to have a blast. If I hear the Guess Who blasting down the street, I'll make sure to look for CG! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
