SNL in the Windy City: What Time's the Party Start?
So, you're in the Windy City, huh? Good choice! Deep dish pizza, iconic architecture, and now, you're wondering about the golden question: What time does SNL start in Chicago? Let's break it down.
SNL: Not Just a New York Thing
You might think SNL is exclusively a New York phenomenon, what with all that "Live from New York, it's Saturday Night!" jazz. But fear not, Chicagoans! You're not missing out on the laughs.
The show airs live on the East Coast at 11:30 PM. But remember, Chicago is in Central Time. So, do the math (or just trust us), and you've got a sweet 10:30 PM kickoff. That's right, you can trade in your deep dish for some shallow laughs a little earlier than your East Coast counterparts.
SNL and Your Social Life
Now, the real question is: are you really going to stay up that late on a Saturday? We mean, Chicago has a vibrant nightlife, delicious food, and, you know, the promise of sleep. Maybe consider hitting the hay a little earlier and catching the reruns on Sunday or Monday. Or, you know, just watch it online the next day. Your liver will thank
SNL: Worth the Late Night?
Ultimately, whether or not to stay up for SNL is a personal decision. If you're a die-hard fan, ready to sacrifice sleep for laughs, then by all means, set your alarm (or, you know, multiple alarms) for 10:30 PM. But if you're more of a "sleep is my love language" kind of person, don't feel pressured to stay up. There's always tomorrow.
