FYI File: It's Not 'Rocket Science'!

Note What the 5th Line States: " DOGS, BICYCLES, BOTTLES OR GLASS NOT PERMITTED IN PLAYLOT"
So guess what the Chicago Park District installed,
right in the middle of the Playlot?

If you bring your dog onto the beach, the lifeguards threaten to call the police and/or chase you off. Meanwhile, the Park District has hired people to bring their dogs onto the beach to chase the seagulls off (under the theory that seagull poop causes e coli levels to rise).

My dog will chase seagulls for free, if they let him.

Yes, Julie, they are unleashed border collies. I looked up the company online. They do mostly ducks and geese on golf courses. Meanwhile, I taught my dog to do this years ago. Not much work, between him just naturally loving to chase birds, and already knowing a command "Go check it out!"

Just to make the message as muddled as possible, they should attach a poop-bag dispenser on the bike rack. And install a basketball hoop. And a pistol range.
