(via The Famous Chicago Rat Hole - Neatorama)

Winslow Dumaine, a comedian, writer, and artist in Chicago, tweeted that he recently made a pilgrimage to the famous Chicago Rat Hole.

This is one of the Windy City's most famous tourist attractions, second only to the Art Institute of Chicago for drawing crowds.

The origins of Chicago Rat Hole are shrouded in mystery. Legend holds that while the concrete for this sidewalk at 1918 West Roscoe Street was being poured, a rat fell in, forever marking the sidewalk with an imprint of its own body. Other Chicagoans contend that it was a squirrel, not a rat.

The Chicago rat hole might’ve been made by a squirrel. Maybe squirrel girl can tell us once and for all 🤔

Sam have you heard about the Chicago Rat Hole? it seems like something that would delight you. associated quote from Robert Evans of the Behind the Bastards podcast: "the worst thing about humanity is our tendency to create religions out of anything. the best thing about humanity is our ability to make cathedrals out of anything."

I'd seen a photo fly past at some point but I assumed it was a joke of some kind. I googled when I got your ask and I guess it's a thing.

I have to admit I don't get it -- like, I don't have a problem with people randomly adorning a rat-shaped (probably squirrel-derived) imprint in the cement, but I don't understand the fascination with it. If I were to be catty I'd say it's because there's not a lot else going on in Roscoe Village, but it's a perfectly nice Chicago neighborhood, no reason to slam it. I suppose it's the same urge that makes people make pilgrimage to the Virgin Mary in a water stain. I'm not about to go out in Chicago in the winter to witness it, but it takes all kinds.

I dunno, I like Robert Evans a lot (I'm a regular BTB listener) but maybe I just don't feel the urge to create cathedrals. In any case it's harmless enough, and I'm glad people are having fun with it. :)
