So, you've made your summer vacation travel plans, and you're about to set forth across the United States in search of any and every place you can find that carries the name "Rockford." I don't want to give anything away here, but before you go, please make sure you've got good tires and plenty of gas money.
We unfortunately do not live in the world of comic books where superheroes always catch the bad guy. In our reality, there are real alleged felons that are on the run from the law. According to the state of Illinois, these are the top 10 most wanted fugitives as of right now.
It may be hard to believe, but there have been some rather strange world records set by Illinoisans over the years, beyond having a certain professional sports team setting a record for length of time between world championships (happily that came to an end in 2016).
Sure, there are lots and lots of places in Illinois you could visit for a good piece of pie. However, this Illinois spot has the reviews and awards that back up its well-deserved reputation for having the very best pies you can find in the state of Illinois.
Just for fun, we wanted to know what Rockford businesses would be better if they had a bar inside it, and the answers we got from residents did not disappoint.
