Getting A Drink Wasn’t Easy Tuesday Night At ad:tech Chicago

For some reason, finding Chicago’s Delacosta restaurant on 466 East Illinois is a challenge. While in town for the ad:tech show, I walked by it two times before realizing it was right in front of me. Adrants Co-Editor Angela Natividad had trouble finding it as well. And it’s right there on East Illinois exactly where it should be. Perhaps it was the ultra-humid heat messing with our minds. Perhaps, at least for me, it was the mini-skirted, high-heeled, belly-shirted, stunningly beautiful woman I’d passed by on that very same sidewalk earlier in the day still clouding my mind. Perhaps I’m just dumb.

Anyway, I found the Wunderman/TDI-sponsored party at Delacosta. Angela found it. And so did buddy and UnSub Central VP of Sales John Engler along with UnSub Central’s Brian Ambrose and Rick.  It was a small party with about 150 people but it was one of those parties where you could actually talk to people and the people you wanted to talk to where there. And, the food was very good. Far above the usual ad:tech-related party fare.
