Hundreds of people showed up to push Chicago’s Bean 7 inches to the left after a viral post claimed a man was trapped inside

Hundreds of people gathered at Millennium Park to attempt to push the famous Cloud Gate sculpture seven inches to the left, as People reports. This massive crowd showed up after an anonymous flyer appeared on streets throughout the city, calling for the first push of the artwork at 12:47 PM. The flyer provided no explanation for the request, simply stating, “We need to move the bean seven inches to the left.” However, one invite mentioned that “there is a man trapped inside the bean” and the push would help them “be able to access that door and give the man inside the bean resources.” The sculpture, which locals call The Bean, is a heavy piece of art. It reportedly weighs 110 tons, so moving it by hand is impossible. Footage from the scene shows a large group of people working together to push the structure in the same direction. Despite the collective effort, the artwork remained firmly in place. It was designed by artist Anish Kapoor and has been a permanent fixture in the park since its unveiling in 2006.

“Surprised”: Tom Izzo Makes His Opinion Around Jon Scheyer’s Duke Absolutely Clear Following Michigan State’s Win

Duke walked into Chicago on Tuesday night looking like one of the toughest teams in the country. The Blue Devils were ranked No. 2; they had opened the season with two blowout wins, and they came with one of the deepest rosters in college basketball. Michigan State, ranked No. 5, had other plans. They led from start to finish and won 79-73. Afterward, in an interview, Tom Izzo said something that sounded more like praise for Duke than a victory speech. “I am a little surprised, ’cause I think they’re a really, really good team, and I feel bad saying that because then it looks like, ‘oh, John d...

Letter: Perhaps it’s time to disband New Trier student section

I attended the Evanston Township High School meeting on Nov. 9 to stand in solidarity with our school leadership, school board and students. It was illuminating.

Some on the ETHS board have deep knowledge of New Trier from prior work experience there.
