Hi everyone!
Welcome aboard Eddie's Railfan Page from the city of Chicago Illinois.

A popular image that one associates from the southwest side of Chicago, are the many neighborhood Italian Pizzzeria restaurants. With the Chicago Blackhawks winning the 2010 Stanley Cup Championship series, many of the local pizza places were constantly slinging pizzas left and right, as many local hungry sports fans were having Chicago Blackhawks viewing parties at home.

Vince's Pizza is located at West 63rd Street and South Melvina Avenue in Chicago's Clearing neighborhood near Midway Airport. My family and I went there for pizza quiete often for awhile during the 1980's. Although they somehow didn't have room to include the area code on the neon phone number...it is the 1-773 area code for Chicago. Many Chicagoans enjoy dining out for pizza on Friday nights as well.

Thanks.
Eddie K.
