It is always interesting watching and listening to people's responses when I tell them I am from Chicago. The misconceptions people have as to how we got our nickname.

Reality: Kansas is FAR more windy than Chicago. In fact, here is why Chicago is REALLY called the "windy city"

Why Chicago Is Really Called The Windy City. “If you had always assumed that Chicago earned its nickname as the Windy City from the chilly gusts coming off Lake Michigan, you would be wrong. The city is windy, according to most local legends, because of the hot air bellowing from politicians.”

AND now you've learned something new!
