Only In Chicago: A Walking Tour Of Political Corruption

While continuing to pay tribute to National Small Business Week, we take a look at a local walking tour that highlights something Chicago is famous for: corruption. 

The Chicago Corruption Walking Tour was created by Paul Dailing after he became so sick of the light-hearted way corruption in Chicago government was referenced.

The almost sold-out tour will be running through August and covers everything from aldermen offering free drinks for votes to the best stories about former mayor William Hale “Big Bill” Thompson.
