      My early-morning ADHD brain read that as:

      And I was like “Well duh!” before my reading comprehension caught up with me.

    You know I live in the city and have never actually visited The Bean in person.

      It’s neat to check out, at least once. I took my girlfriend’s when they came to visit a couple years ago and we had fun taking goofy photos in the reflection.

        I saw The Decemberists in that open grass area there back in … 2007? It’s been a while. That was a good day. I loved Chicago summers.

      Hi from a southern neighbor in Will county!

      I was up there a few weeks ago meeting some new friends from out of town. Had some drinks by the Bean then dinner at Lou’s. 👍

    There are several colors Anish Kapoor is not legally permitted to paint this.

    Saw it for the 1st time last October. My kid absolutely loved it and wants to move to Chicago to see it more often.

    Only if you’re a tourist. Nobody here cares about the stupid bean. Just don’t touch it, you don’t know where those tourists have been.

      As a somewhat recent Chicago tourist… I didn’t care about the bean either, lol.

    You’re not supposed to take pictures of the bean!

    (Just looked it up, apparently they’ll allow it these days unless you’re obviously a crew)

      Don’t worry, I stole this picture from the internet.

    That’s clearly a gate to the clouds, not a bean. 🙃
