Thirsty Whale in DesPlaines still around?

Still there, but new name, new owners. I think Cock Robin is still there.

Believe it or not, my brother was once a bouncer at the Thirsty Whale in Desplaines...that was just his fun job, not his regular job..by day he was an accountant at Continental Bank, by night at bouncer at the Thirsty Whale...

I suspect, since he spent so much time there, and was such a big guy, it was natural for him to be one of their bouncers...
