What Wrigleyville Bar's missed the list?

[@CurtisKolbe]

I had a good time at Cubby Bear, but that was back in 2014

[@briannauss2727]

Mike knows but there’s literally one a block away that gives you a free hot dog with a beer.

[@CoreyWagnerChicago]

@@CurtisKolbe that place is awesome! Almost went there but ran out of time (got to drunk and needed food lol) did you that was the first place that Dave Grohl ever saw live music! Just read that in his bio and thought it was cool

[@CoreyWagnerChicago]

@@briannauss2727 duuuude, I need to find that place asap!

[@slatbox01]

The G’Man.

[@ricosuave8123]

Loved this! Die-hard Cubs fan from Nova Scotia, *CANADA* 🇨🇦

[@CoreyWagnerChicago]

That's awesome! Glad you liked it! It was definitely a fun one to film!

[@TheKyd1192]

🤣 I’m the hot dog water guy! I’m glad that made the cut. Great videos overall 👌🏽

[@CoreyWagnerChicago]

hahahah no way!!!! My and my buddy were laughing about that for a good 30 minutes hahah

[@kourtnybasinger1772]

That’s so cool you live so close to Wrigley!! Great Vlog Corey!! Cheers! 🍻

[@CoreyWagnerChicago]

thanks brother! Hit the jackpot with this apartment for sure!

[@internetajay]

Ayeee my boy is having a good time!!!!

[@CoreyWagnerChicago]

you know it! One of the perks of living in this neighborhood!!!!!!!

[@jeremymuck7415]

Great stuff. I was curious about the bars in Wrigleyville. I plan on seeing the Mariners at Wrigley in April and will definitely hit up these spots for sure.

[@CoreyWagnerChicago]

thanks buddy! There's also some great spots that I didn't film that are north of the stadium too if you wanna check'em out. Yaksies (I think im spelling it wrong lol) and G-Man tavern are pretty cool too. Enjoy your trip dude. And check out Number Six With Cheese on youtube for good food spots in Chicago while you're in town

[@robertjohnson1474]

if you want Dive Bars . You have to go to a Tigers opening day . just walk two blocks in any direction. Went to midsummer Sunday afternoon game wondered away from the park and found a Bar where the barback was scrubbing the blood of the sidewalk from the night before.

[@CoreyWagnerChicago]

now that sounds awesome. It's been too long since I've made it to a Tigers game. I need to get back soon

[@lisaanderson8235]

I gotta get my baseball lovin' self out to Chicago to tick off a couple more MLB parks off the list! ⚾ There's nothing better than a dark crusty dive bar for day drinking. So said Bourdain. ❤️

[@CoreyWagnerChicago]

Wrigley is a must visit stadium for sure!

[@BALOYBEACHBUM]

HOLYCOW!! I am a retired Chief watching from the Philippines! GO CUBS!

[@CoreyWagnerChicago]

that's awesome! Hope you're enjoying retirement! And let's go CUBS!!!!

[@jeremycurtiss2352]

Next time for dive bars you got to go to Wrigleyville North. Been going there for years and has the lovely dive feel.

[@CoreyWagnerChicago]

you're totally right. I feel like I missed out on a couple of good ones like yakzies. Next time for sure!

[@threeg6966]

Wrigleyville North is a definite good dive bar. I was in there with a group in 2016, and the bouncer and a drunken patron got into a scuffle.

[@johnpowers3316]

Corey great list ..was actually nervous what was/ wasn't gonna make the list. Glad you unofficially picked Murphys as the top spot. It truly is the heartbeat of neighborhood. They got good food too.

[@CoreyWagnerChicago]

right! Such a legendary spot. I plan on spending a few afternoons there this baseball season!

[@BallparkHunter]

Why haven't I come up with a video like this? Nice job!

[@CoreyWagnerChicago]

You gotta do a video like this! It's so much fun!

[@lucasmelotik]

Fun video man. Gotta remember these spots if I’m able to catch a Brewers game down there this season.

[@CoreyWagnerChicago]

some solid boozin spots for ya!

[@brianhouser9317]

As a Cubs fan I’m soooooo jealous you just get to go to Wrigley whenever you want!! That being said I gotta ask was it your goal to be AJ’s twin? 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@CoreyWagnerChicago]

hahah the answer to that is easy. YES!

[@brianhouser9317]

@@CoreyWagnerChicago what a solid plan 😎😎

Great video dude

[@CoreyWagnerChicago]

Thanks brother!

[@lynnsenger9950]

Old Smile! Looked like great time. Corey!

[@CoreyWagnerChicago]

heck yeah!

[@AkodoNoEyes]

I’ve heard if you say Malort 3 times in a video a wild Ely appears. “Follow my sh*t and subscribe.” Hahaha love drunk Corey. Clark St Dogs is on my must go to Chicago list.

[@CoreyWagnerChicago]

Hahahha inwas toasted by the end of the video hahaha yeah man, Clark St is freaking awesome!

[@englishedge1988]

Your friend looks like Oleksandr Usyk.. No coincidence he's wearing Champion on his top 😂

[@CoreyWagnerChicago]

that's hilarious! They kind of do look alike lol

[@neuman35]

Should've kept going South on Clark, Jake's Bar two blocks down in a fantastic dive bar.

[@CoreyWagnerChicago]

racist jakes! I used to live right by that spot and loved it. Decided to quite going when the owner kept using the N word on facebook. Cool bar, just wish it was owned by a different dude.

[@Mike-ox1hs]

Love your vlogs.

[@CoreyWagnerChicago]

thanks brother!

[@otlforumadmin]

Amazing video!

[@CoreyWagnerChicago]

Man all I can think of is "So I guess Connor is moving back to LA?" I hope you get this reference Corey

[@CoreyWagnerChicago]

haha oh man, I'm not much of a quote guy. what's it from?

[@rmh2362]

@@CoreyWagnerChicago Oh you said it in a previous NumberSix video in reference to when you and your wife overheard some guy say it when you were both in Wrigleyville. The voice impression that you made was classic haha.

Is that the number 6 with cheese buddy?

[@CoreyWagnerChicago]

hahah that's right sir! What up!!!

[@henry1343]

What time do the bars open on day games?

[@CoreyWagnerChicago]

It all depends on the bar. The best bet is to check their social media or google but in general a lot of the bars will open pretty early on game days.

[@CesarDelgado-fu2nd]

Navy pier vlog that awesome 😊😊

[@CoreyWagnerChicago]

:)

[@ikec4021]

I'll walk in any bar with a old style sign. To me a dive bar means affordable and for the working man

[@CoreyWagnerChicago]

exactly! A good blue collar spot!

[@briannauss2727]

Corey are you now friends with Andrew WK?

[@CoreyWagnerChicago]

I wish!

[@toddjackson164]

Exactly the kind of bar that I choose to ignore in Lakeview.

[@CoreyWagnerChicago]

haha me too honestly. My favorites are L&L and Jaqualines. I like Annoyances bar too

[@chuckdavis1323]

Opening day twenty twenty two.

[@CoreyWagnerChicago]

sorry this comment has me super curious.... what about opening day 2022? The comment seems like it was cut off and there's more to it?

[@chriskelly6559]

Remember, if there are ferns in the bar it ain't a dive.

[@CoreyWagnerChicago]

That's not my barrier for entry but right on!

Kinda jealous of your life. Any pointers? On how to be awesome

[@CoreyWagnerChicago]

hahaha starts with good friends then I just look up at least one dope thing to do every weekend and make it happen. Always say yes to adventures!

Look up Merkle's Boner, one of the most important events in early baseball history and you'll know who Fred Merkle is....
