Sadly, There Weren't Any Papers

Chicagoist was walking down Franklin this evening when we saw a whole bunch of cops standing around. "Weird," we thought, "that's a lotta coppa." But we were rocking out to the iPod and didn't pay too much attention. Then we passed a huge table of food. "Weird," we thought, "free food. Awesome. But what's up with all these trucks? And lights? What the ass is going on here?"

Oh. Batman. It took us a minute to put it all together, but sure enough, cops + free food + lights and trucks = the Caped Crusader. Check out this honor box: Gotham Post looks a little familiar. So. Fucking. Cool.
