One of the worst things about dating apps is that sometimes they don't look like the picture. Actually, it is worse when your date leaves something out of the picture! We also visit Petersen's Main Inn in Lemont for some pool, malort (ew), and a trip to the past as we explore Lemont's former Red Light District.

We also celebrate St. Patrick's Day Weekend at Porter Cullens in Evergreen Park and the guys do a special musical performance from the bar.
