LAST CALL IS AT 5:30PM TODAY SATURDAY FEBRUARY 28TH FOR A PRIVATE PARTY OF THE BUILD-A-BURGERS WE ARE HOSTING.
COME SEE US TOMORROW AT 2PM FOR THE CHILI COOK-OFF!
I'd love to get 1 or 2 more contestants for tomorrow's CHILI COOK-OFF.
What do you say? Do you have a recipe that you're certain will melt faces? Or at least fill a belly? Or send someone on a journey with his spirit animal?
If you want to get in the ring, email me (or DM me I suppose) at mind-control@ibw-chicago.com
If you just want to come drink beer and eat chili, just come on by, maybe around 330ish, we'll say? Or come earlier and lay a respectable base coat and let John Forbes massage the foot corns of your mind.
ALSO, please remember that we are closing to the public tonight at 6pm for a Private Party.
