The 1967 snow storm happened 3 days after I was born in Chicago. I routinely hear the story of how my dad had to walk in this snow to get milk for his 3 day old baby girl. 🥰
Take someone parking spot in Chicago when it snow u gone end up with yo car totaled ofn🤣
I live in Chicago.
I've seen paint cans, An Ironing Board, Chairs and a Bar stool. So far.
Every winter, it gets crazier. But people DO throw the shit in the snow and park. But, there's always a fallout for that. Then....it's on.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
That’s me I’m the little girl sitting in the chair LOL that’s me on the news I can’t believe it
Nice
Wonderful for the local news to highlight him!

1967 snowstorm. Started it all

In 1996 The Best Of WGN News is Chicago's Very Own 😍♣️♦️♠️♥️💖💖💖💖🇨🇴
Dibs is stupid and a sure fire way to start problems on your block.
Car problems.
I thought they stopped doing this when somebody cut the breaks on a woman’s car
Nope....Most recently, somebody threw a chair on someone’s beautiful Honda Civic
Lol no
Someone took my spot that I shoveled last week. I shovelled another spot and dumbed all the snow all on her car. Don't take people's spot
@@darthcelsius6393 That happend to me and took their dibs off the spot I shoveled.. nope they popped my tire.
@@MikeDrew312 Yea I have a truck that wouldn't be pretty I would tow their car
Why don't people make it a community or neighborhood effort to remove the snow for everybody, Instead of just digging out a place for themselves? Every neighborhood should have a rouster to sign-up for those that are willing and able.
This can become contentious if dib spots are taken. We ought to be neighborly, at least making efforts towards that.
Making it a time for fun and getting together as a community. Like it was in the 60s and 70s.
I'm just saying.🤔
This guy should have his own show. The fake accent that people on news networks have should be retired.
I saw this when I got off work
Whomever disliked this must mean dis i like... I mean who couldn't like this???
that’s why someone car was left on flats?

I love his TikTok account ❤❤❤❤
Yeah don’t forget the trash man comes around throwing your dib items away after awhile...
124 likes and 5 people lost their dibs.
Yeah , I understand dibs. But some people get greedy n call dibs when a inch of snow falls n the snow melts away the next n still keep the parking spot. That's B.S !
Exactly. There's still junk on the street now and it's 40 and melting.
People don’t play about their parking spots whites blacks n Hispanics will literally fight your ass or destroy your car n even get it towed....I seen it all🤣
