Chicago festivals and parades

[Chicago1991]

Good evening,
So word has come down that that the Pride parade, Bud Billiken parade, and Lollapalooza are among the other big parades and festivals returning to Chicago this year. Any CPD officers ever work these? If so which ones and what was it like? Thanks.

Worked Billiken numerous times. Usually ends with shooting(s) in Washington Park by the end. Puerto Rican Fest usually involved keeping opposing gangs apart.
