The article was talking about a personal experience on a trip and the lack of knowledge about the area from the people working in the hotel.
I would have some information about the area, but as far as being a tourism ambassador? Not me. Don't get me wrong, there are some great things about Chicago, but that is not what came to mind...
When I saw the title of the blog post, my first thought was,"sure, here's my pitch as tourism ambassador:"
Have you always wanted to see what a politically corrupt city looks like?
Are you looking to see the end result of some gang violence?
How about an itch for sitting hours in bumper to bumper traffic to travel 2 miles?
Any desire to pass through one of the most congested airports?
Well, then come to Chicago!
If you have a sense of adventure and spontaneity, then this is a must see city for you!
You'll never know if you need shorts, an umbrella or a hat and scarf, and that is all in one hour!
Have you ever wanted to see cement fall from an overpass?
How would you like to experience a tire blow out from a crater sized pothole?
Haven't you always wanted to pay 10.25% in sales tax on your souvenirs?
Come to Chicago!

I think it's the wind. It's too windy and these politicians just lost their senses.
Um, yeah. I don't think I'll be visiting Chicago any time soon, LOL.
Hahahaha! Now there's something you don't see every day -- honesty in advertising!
That sounds about right, the potholes are ridiculous, while driving I almost get into so many accidents trying to avoid potholes that will swallow my car and the traffic at the same time, it's ridiculous -- oh and the 10.25% tax, unfortunately none goes to fixing the potholes! That's Chi town.
LoLoLoL!! I like your take on Robin's question! I've been meaning to tackle it on my site too, but without the awesome sarcasm you have here (excuse me while I wipe at my monitor - some of it dripped out, LoL!).
You forgot to mention:
Have you ever wanted to visit the John Hancock center in winter and dodge falling slabs of ice?
Have you ever wanted to experience the cab ride of death by a driver whose English may or may not be as limited as he lets on and who thinks that 0-70mph on Dearborn Street toward Oak is a good idea, even though you need to come to a harrowing stop every couple of blocks, only to go 0-70mph until the next red light?
I would have almost the exact same post, except for make it Cleveland.
Funny.
lol!!! I think we could say that about any city :)
>> Have you ever wanted to visit the John Hancock center in winter and dodge falling slabs of ice? <<
Oh you have those too, do you? Ha!
We get those falling from the CN Tower in Toronto on very, very bad winter days. (Not every winter.) But lately we've augmented this with falling slabs of marble from the sides of buildings.
No wonder we have an underground shopping concourse that goes under our entire downtown!! It's as much as your life is worth, walking outside!
