arguing with strangers

arguing with strangers, thursday, november 12 at mary jo mcguire's in lincoln park.

arguing with strangers is our viral monthly bar debate club series where strangers go head to head to debate.

we start things easy. get paired with a stranger, get handed a side, and argue something ridiculous. like is a hot dog a sandwich? defend it with everything you've got and practice disagreeing with a laugh.

then the best matchups go up front, with the crowd picking the winner.

send us your hot takes and get the chance to defend them up front and spark debates for the whole crowd.

once everyone's loose, the topics get real and you talk about the stuff you don't usually say out loud to a stranger.

things may get serious, but they stay civil. and at the end of the night, you walk away knowing you can completely disagree with someone and still walk out respecting a new friend.

we forgot how to do that. this is practice.
