When you’re a Chicagoan you know to make the best of the summer months because the cold weather is just around the corner.

And we really know how to party!

Chicagoans are the most likely to throw a summer party, sending out 42,000 e-vites (online invitations) to our pals last year.

That means we party more than NYC! Take that. Austin was second on E-vite’s list of  “2018 Top 10 U.S. Cities for Summer BBQ/Pool Parties” with San Diego at number three. Seattle and Denver rounded out the top five.

The average party has around 28 people. Really?? How many people were at your last party?

Can I come?
