Wear Your Ugly Sweaters With Pride

Looking for an excuse to dig out that ridiculous reindeer sweater your sister gave you as a joke? Wear it to John Barleycorn Wrigleyville’s ugly sweater party and you might score a gift card if that sweater is selected as one of the ugliest. All night drink specials include $5 domestic bottles and $5 candy cane shots (peppermint schnapps, white chocolate liqueur and 4 Rebels Premium Vodka). DJ Jet spins from 10 p.m.-2 a.m. with no cover charge. (3524 N. Clark St.)
