One of the more fun SNL skits for me as a kid was Bill Swerski's Super Fans Show, better known as "Da Bears". This was when a bunch'a guys would sit around a table, drink beer, smoke cigars and eat, and talk about sports and heart attacks. These guys were Chicago fanatics, and more specifically, in love with Mike Ditka. Ditka could do no wrong. My all time favorite segment was when Chris Farley (in my opinion the funniest man to ever live) was choking on a pork steak yelling "I'm noking, I'm noking!", and with some help from his friends, coughed it up. The point of this is that if you're with a group of friends and going to a Halloween party but don't know what to wear, then this is it. You just dress up in Chicago sports clothing, hats, 80's sunglasses, and fake mustaches, build up a halfway decent Chicago accent, and talk about the greatness of Ditka or Jordan, or Bob Probert for that matter. Just don't mention the Cubs--these guys never did.
