Voodoo Nakisi

What happened

I was attending a conference at the Palmer House hotel yesterday. I left to get a drink on Michican Ave. with some fellow conference attendees around 10PM; on the way out of the hotel I looked across the street at the bike, and it was still there along with 3-4 other bikes locked on the same corner. We returned about 11:30, at which time my bike was gone -- as were all the other bikes that had been locked there.
