When you've seen Millenium once that's about it unless you're going to a concert. I don't see anywhere to play fast-pitching there.

You can sit on a bench, under a tree, and smoke a cigar in Millenium Park also. What makes the act better at other parks? Do you get blinded by the reflections coming off the bean and the pavilion?

I said I thought Millenium Park was no big deal, not that it wouldn't be a good place to relax. That the parks I prefer are less crowded and more relaxing is a point in their favor.
