Alphabet Dating with a Chicago Twist
Whether you’re gearing up for cuffing season, celebrating a long-term relationship, or you’re just looking for something for you and your friends to do, Chicago is full of great date spots. A recent TikTok trend called “alphabet dating” is helping Chicagoans narrow down the options in a creative and fun way. The goal is to come up with a date idea for each letter of the alphabet. The City Cast team is offering our own take as host Jacoby Cochran and marketing coordinator Jermaine Thomas each design six date ideas to go with the first six letters of their names.
Join us next week when lead producer Simone Alicea faces off against newsletter editor Sidney Madden.
