RIP-CHICAGO MIKE

Okay. I'm not so sure it's the same Mike then. I knew a "Chicago Mike" from Minneapolis, and I had met him years ago on Isla Mujeres on the Carribean side of Mexico. He and his buddy had me in stitches with their stories and jokes. He was quite a character, and I made a point of visiting him at Nye's once when I was in Minneapolis. He was a fixture at Nye's and I couldn't believe he was still bartending at his age! I knew he planned on retiring a few years ago, and wanted to split his time between Mexico and the midwest. Your post brought me some warm memories, I'm sorry for your loss. Jo
