Me? Ha, ha, ha, ha, blaaagh!
Not enough alcohol in the world to get me up there!
I will absolutely go! I used to work in the Tower and was always pushing my face up against the glass.
There actually is a long line to get in there right now. Streching all the way to Wacker. I have NEVER seen a line that went out the lobby door to the observation deck. By the looks of the people this wasn’t a group tour. Made up of a very diverse group of people.
I have not seen any pictures of the Skybox’s new attraction at night time. I remember going up there in the late 90′s right before closing on a Friday night, how neat it was to look out of the Sears Tower at night time. It appears prices have nearly double since 1996 (I hate sounded like an old person; I guess that comes with time). At first, when I heard about the Sears Tower new attraction I thought no way but after looking at EJ’s pictures at DGreports that would be neat to do.
