Question of the day

Posted in:

* You heard the man. Answer his question…


So @ChooseChicago is giving some testimony about their 2021-2022 marketing plans for social media.

So helpful twitter citizens, anybody got a terrific slogan or hashtag for re-energizing Chicago tourism you want to suggest?
