Unlock Message:
"From wolfing down Dat Donuts to strolling through Ping Tom Park to worshipping at the altar of MJ, you've traversed the City of Big Shoulders, checking in at five Chicago hotspots. And by hot, we mean gusty. They don't call it the Windy City for nothing." -
Tested with one of my accounts and I did not have to follow ExploreChicago to get the unlock. I will still list it as one of the unlock steps since they were nice enough to get us a new badge. :)

There's a link above to the venue list from JR1.

I posted a list of venues above as replies to @JR1 first post "Space for future badge updates."

Unlock with 5 c/i at Co-Prosperity Sphere :-)
-
Thank you @RainWave23
-
you're welcome
-
@choad17 Much like when they first released the Man v Food badge first came out not all the venues they list on their webpage are unlocking this badge yet. All the venues that RainWave listed were already listed in the Venue List taht is posted in teh unlock instructions. You just have to give them time to get all their venues listed correctly so taht they will all unlock the badge.
-
I did not get the badge with the first 5 venues posted in RainWave23's list. I will just keep going.
**EDIT**
I got it on my 6th checkin using https://foursquare.com/v/ping-tom-memorial-park/4bbfae5eb492d13ad218a360 -
unlocked with 2 c/i
-
Ditto that Beerknurd...checked in on the 6th time here: https://foursquare.com/v/chicago-velo-campus/4e1e0e65aeb75f77be667547

I got the badge already after 4 c-i's from the list....
-
@Kltpzyxm I would not even know how to test that unless we got a venue list from the person who unlocked the badge. The unlock instructions we have came directly from the press release for the badge in the chicago news. So @aBBe can you provide us with a list of venues that your friend used as well as a link to their badge unlock?

I recieved 2 badges while trying to unlock this badge.

I can't get the "Time Out - Bar Hunter" badge.
Is it still active? I've been checking into recommended venues (Time Out Chicago) for the past few days and nothing. -
@diegoluisavila Every badge has it's own thread. Please direct your questions regarding that badge to http://mattersofgrey.com/forum/discussion/161/time-out-bar-hunter-badge
-
@AishahSam. It is still active. What steps have you taken so I can help you diagnose the issue?
-
-
@AishahSam if you were using our venue list in the main instructions, the problem could have been the two of the venues on that list were no longer working. I went ahead and updated that list. The bad venues have been replaced with working ones. Hope that helps you.
