I mean as long as we hold a moment of silence for people we never knew before digging into plates piled high with steaming meat.

“stopping at the site where the ship sunk and performing a memorial service on the date of the 100th Anniversary.” Especially this part! Man, as if anyone on board has any memory of the dearly departed of 100 years ago.

Bet they’ll all claim to be sorrowful about their deaths though. While actually going for the thrill of recreating.

Man, and I thought all the Civil War re-enactments were effed up. People never ceased to astound me.

Waterslide Park, where you can experience the thrills and excitement of the Great Flood of 1889, as you ride down the raging river and take the desperado plunge! Pure fun for the whole family!

Not to be outdone, you can experience the Chicago “Burning Man” Festival this year, which includes free admission to anyone with the last name O’Leary!
