Local Guides > Chicago Chicago: Travel tips for the Windy City

5 of 13

Chicago, The Windy City, has a unique and storied tradition. It is also considerably smaller than New York or LA, and quite manageable for the tourist without prior knowledge.

Sports & Recreation > Football (Other) How to throw a football

5 of 10

Have you really looked at a football? It looks a bit like a missile, but bulges in the middle. There are two points, and a thread of a large seam running end to end.
