For some random reason, that name has started to annoy me in recent years, for it's extreme theme park-ness. "Chicagoland" sounds like a place where you'd play "Michael Jordan's 3 on 3 Shoot-Out" and go on "Al Capone's Wild Ride". Of course, you would need a city sticker prior to doing any of that, although you may reserve your spot in line with a lawn chair.
