Getting my (meet up) cherry popped in Chicago

[seaboy4hire]

What a great night at the meet up in Chicago. To the guys who organized the event and got everyone together great job! I must be honest I waffled on whether or not I would attend but someone who will remain nameless kinda pushed me to go. He said it would be curtains for me if I didn't so well yeah I had to go. I have a kitty to support and can't leave Mr. Fred without a mother LOL It was nice to put faces with names and see a couple people I haven't seen in ages. I hope that I will be able to attend the next meet up where ever that might be. Hope everyone in Chicago is having a good time. I must be a responsible adult and get ready for bed soon since I have to be up at 630am :-O

 

Hugs,

Greg

Thanks for the first report Greg. The guy who organized it and did it all was Chitown and by all accounts did an amazing job. He should be rightly proud of pulling this thing together. Sounds like it was an amzaing time and I can't wait to hear from the others.

[leeper]

It seemed that a good time was had by all. It was great to meet the people behind the postings and for the escorts, to meet them in the flesh. I have to say, the photos of some of the guys simply don't do them justice. Personally I would have liked to see the event continue on, but we only had the room until 8PM and most of the guys had places to go; I expect we will hear of their later evening exploits after they have had sufficient time to recover. Kudos to Chitown for organizing this, thanks to all of the folks who attended and socialized. Special thanks to a an absent benefactor who paid for appetizers for the group. I, like Greg, did not go out on the town after and am sitting in my PJs, getting ready to go to bed at 11:30PM (Alone, unfortunately)

Another attendee reporting in here! Yes! What a great event. Thanks to Chitown we had a private room and were able to mingle and talk and compare notes on IML as well as other things. :-) Like Leeper said, it was nice to meet the "real" people who post on the Forum as well as the escorts. Some guys really had some interesting experiences while they were here in the Windy City - both good and bad. I'm sure they will report on them as they check in. Thanks to all who attended.

I'm gonna tease a little more...

near the end of the night, we were wondering if we would have enough total money for the entire check and THEN some people decided to start stripping and it wasn't who you think it was either!

Spanker? Hey Spanker, mate?? You out there??? I know you only escort at the ultra-high-end but my wallet is open. I want Gcursor put in a cage and poked. With a stick. Frequently. PM me the bill.

[leigh.bess.toad]

Now gcursor. We've talked to you before about your penchant for stripping in public. We know you just love to take off your clothes at the drop of a hat. ANY HAT. what ever are we going to do with you.

 

Actually I know who I have my money on. But I'm dying to know. It's not nice (or safe) to tease the forum members. Many of them have floggers and paddles.

[gcursor]

Teasing

 

ALL RIGHT...how cool is this...this might be the most action I've had...well...it was yesterday..but that was a long time.

 

p.s. my posting was just a "teaser"..i thought I teased pretty good

Part 1 of my chicago trip

 

whatever can go wrong probably will...

 

My chicago trip started late Friday afternoon as I drove in from Michigan. Mildred (my GPS unit) got upset with me several times during my trip and kept repeating, "Go F**K yourself!". There was a tense moment there when Mildred brought up a route to Kentucky when she got really mad!

 

I haven't been to Chicago in years and years. One of the first things that I noticed is IT'S BIG! Second thing that I noticed is that it's EXPENSIVE! The first night I got there, I parked in a parking garage and walked all over looking for a McDonald's. I kept thinking, "SERIOUSLY? THERE ARE NO MCDONALD'S IN THIS TOWN?!?!?!" It was kind of cool because I hit business rush hour so I fit in with everybody with my shirt and tie and black leather overcoat. I felt like I was part of the city! Oh sure, people stared when I had that Mickey Mouse ears hat on but I looked good otherwise. Once I left McDonald's, I went back to the garage and got my car. Guess what...the cashier was closed! I swear to God it took me a good 10 minutes to figure out that you PAY at those machines before getting out of the ramp!!

 

The day of the event (Saturday), I only had to meet my aunt in Millenium Park. Not being a city native, I decided to park in the MILLENIUM PARK garage. Not knowing where I was going and being somebody who doesn't ask for directions, I headed off in the direction that I thought the park was in. No worries as I had plenty of time to get there (a few hours). After quite some time walking, my aunt called and I told her where I was and she said "Okay..you're heading towards Navy Pier..you're going the wrong way..walk back the other way, across the river and then call me!" I was thinking "Damn it! I knew I was making too good of a time!" I started walking back and finally found my way to Michigan avenue. Finally after quite some time, I made it to Millenium Park. I met with my aunt for a while and we went to Jimmy John's where I will SWEAR I saw a porn star sitting next to us but couldn't think of the right thing to say so quietly kept nodding while listening to my aunt talk. We also got to see a little bit of the parade. All the while I was sitting there thinking, "Where's the action in the town? "

 

Then my aunt left and it started to POUR! I had my black leather overcoat on along with my clothes and I got very very very very very very drenched. I decided I had to go to the bathroom which in and of itself was a major problem for me to locate. As I started to leave the bathroom, I squished while I walked and I thought to myself, "HEY! People will WANT to sit next to me at the dinner now! I'll smell like MILDEW!" More rain poured down and I saw kids out in prom wear and this one girl had 4 girls trying to keep her skirt off the water and I was watching it thinking, "Seriously? It's POURING down rain here! I think you're fighting a losing battle!" As I watched everything happen and got wetter and wetter, I decided to go back to my car. Oh great..where did I park that? 42 million parking garages in Chicago and I get to play WHERE'S WALDO with my car! I thought to myself, "Gee I wonder my range is for my electronic car alarm!!" I pressed it and an alarm went off somewhere in the city and I thought, "Nope..not following that! I'm already making bad time!" In desperation, I showed my ticket to somebody (it was a homeless person who wanted to SAVE me) who finally did tell me how to get there. I put the ticket in to pay with cash and IT JAMMED because it was wet. I pressed for ASSISTANCE and I told the lady that my ticket jammed and she said, "Was it wet?" to which I thought the BEST answer was "It's raining out! Do you THINK it might be?" As I sat there drenched, dripping, cold and getting more frustrated, my mind harkened back to a saying that said, "Happy people make happy times!" and then I hit the machine. Nope..ticket's still jammed.

 

Finally after paying, I got down to the lower levels and NOW came the fun part! I had taken a picture of where I parked and all the locations. I looked at the picture and it said 2G. I had a 2A, 2B, 2C, 2D but then it stopped! I was thinking, "Great..I parked my car in the TWILIGHT ZONE and i'll never see it again." After ambling around the parking garage, I finally happened upon my car. Now I had no hotel room to go to and I had a dinner that was starting in about 45 minutes. I thought, "OKAY! I get to change in my car! YES!" I started throwing clothes around the car looking for socks, underwear, a new shirt, tie (what do you mean I didn't pack THE TIE?!? Oh..here it is..where are my socks now?" Why does that darned security vehicle keep running by the car! YES..the windows are steamed up but TRUST ME, I ain't having anywhere NEAR the amount of fun I should be having when that happens! 30 minutes later I emerged from the car with a tie on! Actually I had gotten dressed..and now I got to find my way out. I turned on the GPS unit (Mildred) who was still PEEVED at me from earlier and programmed in the Weber Grill. Mildred told me to find my own way and I apologized again for being mean and she started giving me directions. Apparently she didn't accept my apology because she put me down 3 different roads before we found one that she admitted actually WENT to the weber grill. As I drove to the weber grill, I reflected on the day and thought, "Dear god..can this get any worse?"

 

 

tune in for part 2....

[+ Cock Eyed Optimist]

LOL Well the important thing is that you FINALLY did make it to the big event!

[gcursor]

So does anybody know the maker of those "electric gloves" they were talking about at the dinner?

[+ Cock Eyed Optimist]

No, but they were being demonstrated at IML, so if anyone still has time to go to the Leather Market, give us a "heads up". I did have them demonstrated on me at IML, but I didn't take a business card. They were really great! And he only demonstrated them on me on my waist. Think of what they would be like a bit lower!

[+ Cock Eyed Optimist]

"Bump" No one else is going to comment on the "Chicago Forum Get-together"?

[gcursor]

Very much

 

I was going to ask about that too Optimist. I mean everybody was still breathing and very much alive when *I* left the dinner

Part 2 of my Chicago Trip

 

Part 2 of my chicago trip

 

I laughed, I cried

 

Finally I was on my way to the Weber Grill then I got in what apparently is called a "traffic jam" although honestly you really can't call it a "traffic jam" if you don't move...at all! As I was riding along, Mildred assured me that I would be there at 4:45 then 4:50 then 4:55...then I said to her, "Stop it! I'll split the difference with you and call it 7 pm!" I kept inching forward towards my destination through a snarl of traffic (people had commented how bad the traffic was). As I got closer to the restaurant, Mildred said, "You have arrived at your destination" which usually means "You've now PASSED your destination. go back."

 

Immediately I set about trying to find a good parking ramp.I looked at the signs and one said "17 dollars for the first 30 seconds" and then I saw "42 dollars for the first minute on alternate Mondays in months that have J in them" and then I found the one which I thought was perfect for me, "82.00 an evening unless your first name is David." I immediately drove into this parking ramp which was surprisingly empty then I read the sign which said "NOTE: David clause only applies if your last name is David as well." and I thought to myself, "I WAS THIS CLOSE!"

 

I walked over to the Weber Grill and it was still raining. I went inside and then was shown back to the room. HERE comes the fun part...I have a terrible time with names so this is going to be very "touch and go".

 

Shortly after I sat down, somebody came in and said "Hi" to me and introduced himself. He was a very pleasant gentleman. I immediately got my name card out and gave him one. We talked for a while and he said that he had seen a few plays while he was in Chicago. As we were talking, another person came in and then shortly after that was another then another then another and another....and then I lost track of giving out my "name cards".

 

I distributed my goodies to some people that were there at the dinner and people started getting acquainted with each other. To the person who rubbed my knee really hard, PLEASE call me (kidding! about the knee rubbing!) The person came in and started taking all our drink orders. I looked at the menu and immediately was mystified...there...was...NO...soda...pop...options...AT....ALL! I started to hyperventilate and then I asked the woman if they had Pepsi and she said yes. At last...I ordered my standard...Pepsi straight up in a glass on the rocks. Then after we had gotten our drinks, there were huge trays of appetizers that were brought in. THEN there were MORE huge trays of appetizers brought in! It was like an endless buffet of appetizers! So what did everybody do...we started to eat.

 

Then the people came in and took our food orders and I ordered the salmon. Apparently the thing I didn't realize is that there's a stream out back of the restaurant that I had to go to and actually catch my fish for dinner. Actually the salmon I got was very tasty and delicious.

 

I can't describe to you all the people that I saw that night because it would take a long time for me to discuss. ChiTown deserves a great deal of respect and credit for doing everything that he did to get the dinner set up and everything. I did enjoy myself talking with the various guys about this, that and the other thing. People were in very good spirits and nary a disparaging word was said by anybody (or is it nobody) anywhere. It was nice to see everybody laughing and talking with each other. I did what I could to liven up the party at times (when I was showing off my SPEEDO) but then I was told that might not be appropriate to do since I was wearing a suitcoat.

 

I can't list the escorts and single out one above another. Everybody that's there works so very hard for what they get.I know that! Everybody there deserves the praise and appreciation that they get. Nobody deserves more praise than anybody else. All the escorts that were there are very, very, very talented and it was a great pleasure to see old acquaintances and to learn about some new ones as well. I kept trying to write down who I wanted to hire next but eventually I ran out of space on my napkin.

 

The members, as I said, were all very kind and considerate. Again I can't single out any above another because everybody did their best to make the thing go very very well!! There were a few standout people that I met there that I hope that I'll meet again. I know that they know who they are. It was just so good to see everybody talking and getting along with each other.

 

At the end of the evening, some guys were going to go out on the town and I couldn't go I was so depressed because I wanted to see what happened AFTER the dinner. It took INCREDIBLE restraint for me to leave the dinner and go back to the lonely parking garage with my car.

 

As I got into my car, I turned on Mildred and she said, "Hello David" to which I replied sadly, "Hey Mildred." Mildred said, "Ready to go home?" and I replied, "No...not really." but then Mildred said, "I know David but it's okay. There's always going to be a next time." As I cried listening to Mildred, she plotted my course back to Michigan and I reluctantly started my long drive home that evening.

 

I started looking at all the large skyscrapers that I was passing. I remembered the encounters that I had with all the people. I remembered the good times and some of the frustrating times. I remembered going to Millenium Park and getting drenched by the rain. I remembered going to the dinner and the laughter that I heard. I remember when I first got into the city and thought, "OH no!!! I am so lost!". I thought of spending the night with a special guy who is very warm and caring. I thought of everything that I had been through and cried because I had had a good time. I had grown a bit more as a person and as an individual because of this trip and the experiences that I had had. Everybody that I met had had a hand in that most assuredly.

 

As I turned on the highway out of Chicago, I noticed that I was on the wrong toll road, "MILDRED!" I yelled.....

[+ newatthis]

Great reports! You should do more of them.

[+ Cock Eyed Optimist]

LOL! Thoroughly enjoyed what you had to say!

[leigh.bess.toad]

Just how big were these appetizer trays, out of curiosity?

 

But it was a nice report. But what I'd love to know is the roster of who was there from the client side and who was there from the escort side.

[nate_sf]

Wow, gcursor, fantastic! But don't forget you also told me a duck laughed at you in Millenium Park as you got drenched in the rain. But just a little detail.

 

Lee, if you are a size queen you would have loved the appetizer trays as there was a lot of big meat there. Something for everyone.

 

A while after dinner Raul was kind enough to escort us to the Jackhammer bar, which includes a sleezy downstairs bar appropriately named The Hole. The Hole has a strict leather dress code, so as we went down to enter the gigantic doorman either (a) turned people away, (b) altered their outfits, or © made them remove clothing. The muscle man in front of me had to wait as they found him a harness to wear. Fortunately I had my leather pants on but was told I had to loose the jacket and shirt. Considering it's about 90 degrees inside the bar that's just as well.

 

Lots of nasty things occur in The Hole, particularly in its back room. I confess once I got to the back room I got, er, distracted and did not get back to our the rest of our group so not sure how how the others spent the evening. Sorry guys!

[NYTomcat]

Iml and Chicago was just over the top. Spent alot of time hanging with just an incredible group of guys. Both at the luncheon. And then again at the evening events and the market place and at boystown and the second floor bar in Chicago dowtown. My kudos to the gang nate Ryann tyger dane for more adventures and misadventures than I'm allowed to gush over. You are all the best

 

Romann as always a gracious host for Chicago

 

Seaboy and david thanks so much for all the great conversation at the luncheon.

 

It was truly an experience I wont forget

[raulgmanzo]

Yes a good time all around. My tuna steak was even very tasty, though I was disappointed that they didn't cook it in front of me on a weber grill.

 

As has been my experience at other forum gatherings everyone in attendance was friendly and a pleasure to see again or to meet. Well except Mildred. I would have thought Gcursor would have the sense to leave her in his car. "Your fork is on the right", "you're eating too fast". "Take one more bite of your salad then proceed to entree". Really irritating.

 

Sadly there were a couple guys I never got a chance to talk with or give a proper hello.

 

Beyond that there were many scandalous but not entirely unwholesome activities. But of course discretion and fear of mixing up names prevents me from going into details. Except that I gave a sexy, well known escort, porn star, sexual adventurer/sage a good old fashioned wedgie. Turns out his tighty whiteys weren't so tight! But I will say that he seemed to handle it well. Confirming what I always knew, that he has a good sense of humor, or was simply too drunk too care. Unless throwing me across the pool table is "caring". Good fun! So see not all of the activities were adult oriented.

[raulgmanzo]

Hmmm, the fun, gregarious and ever ready for action Tomcat can blame himself for many of the adventures! Before we even left his hotel for a gear and fetish party Tomcat managed to get to know most of a wedding party including the minister. Some of them even came up to his suite to help us put on our chaps. No word on how many of them he got to "know" in the biblical sense.

You mean he wasn't staying at the host hotel? But that's the best part!

Great post Raul--positive and to the point. The addition of the boyish games of you 2 guys should have brought a smile to everyone's face Congratulations.
