Lottie's is turning 77, and after spending so many years indulging Chicago in boozy delights, a simple party was just not enough. Devote your entire Saturday to Lottie's 77th anniversary and enjoy live music from 2 p.m. to 9 p.m., with live band karaoke (dangerous) following after that. A complimentary buffet, begins at noon and will feature all of Lottie's neighborhood faves. You knew this was coming, so brace yourselves: Drink specials include 77 cent draft beers (good god) and $4 Jameson. There's no cover, just a huge celebration. Happy birthday indeed!
Lottie's Pub, 1925 West Cortland (at Winchester Avenue); 773-489-0738.
