Road Trip...I'm going and staying at the Wingate...now, what good eats are by there? Being a heavy drinker I'd rather opt for close that classy as I'll just stumble home.

Looking forward to it..

haha, no one need worry about getting mugged or shanked in Arlington Heights.

Near the intersection of Algonquin road and Arlington Heights road in arlington Heights there are numerous hotel choices. this is where I would stay because its close to the track and right off of I90, convenient from the airport. mapquest it you will find Wingate, Sheraton, Motel 6 Red Roof and many others.

go north on Arlington heights road two miles and you hit the downtown area where you will find some restauarants/bars.

think I'll take off that afternoon and head over to the track to see the queen and her entourage.

How is Schiller Park, Palatine or Elk Grove? Hotel search has them all around 5 miles away.

After AP, I would say Palatine or Elk Grove are okay alternatives.







Schiller Park?

I was thinking of making reservations at the place someone mentioned on the Arlington thread. We'd have to eat and run though to catch our flight out...

Lunch is also an option.

I would be up for an after race gathering, lunch/dinner.

I could also give 2-3 people a lift to the airport on the way out if it would help. Not far from here.

We should just go to Trackside and eat there, this way I can continue to piss away money and eat bomb food.

This is 1000% right. Still think people should stay at the Sheraton, even if it is $30 or $50 more dollars, you guys are going to pay for the hotel once she wins at 8/5 anyways......
