Chicago Pride

It's not the Willis Tower, it's the Sears Tower, I don't wear sneakers, I wear gym shoes. I don't drink soda, I drink pop. I don't go to the movies, I go to the show. Where I'm from is determimed by north, south, east, or west. I'm from the city with the best pizza, hot dogs and GUYros. I have taken the train, L, and subway at the same time without even leaving my seat. 40 degrees isn't cold. My basketball team has 6 rings. My football team did the super bowl shuffle. Your tall buildings don't impress me. Your country living don't move me. I don't need to put my city on a hat to tell where I'm from, the way I move explains enough! Repost if you are from THE CHI AND YOU LOVE IT! (from Erick Esteban).
