Join Here’s Chicago and the Chicago Sports Museum for a jam-packed night of sips, bites and interactive activities. You'll also have the chance to go head to head against Cubs Hall of Famer Ryne Sandberg in a game of shuffle board or darts in the Museum's newly unveiled Game Room. The Game Room features a walnut framed shuffleboard, darts, giant jenga and a range of other games along with a wall of TVs and gorgeous leather lounge seating, including baseball glove inspired sofas. The room is perfect for groups looking for a more intimate space than Chicago Sports Museum’s Hall of Legends, but still interested in interactive activities to entertain their guests.
