It's our birthday and we'll Yelp if we want to!
On Thursday evening the Yelp Elite Squad
celebrated a year of Yelp Chicago with a big birthday bash at the upscale
lounge, Stone
Lotus. The evening started off with auditions for Check, Please where our very own
yelp superstars lined up to yelp about their favorite restaurants on
camera. The producers are going to have a tough time picking just a few
candidates when they have to choose between John F,
Chris
B, and the oh so lovely Christina
S.
SF Yelp's own Brad P
flew in for the big bash and could be spotted at the bar (where else?) in his
snazzy red yelp jacket boozing with Mesum N,
Erin B,
and other fabulous yelpers. Yelp beauties, such as Amy H
and Lindley
E, were also in the house sipping svedka vodka martinis and making the
hearts of yelp men go pitter patter. And we can't forget Molly
Mcbutter C....who can resist a woman in sparkly gold heels? 
We welcomed new members of the community such as Peter H and Jennifer S, who will now be sporting their yelp elite shirts around town. Ray L also made it to his to his first yelp event and we were happy to see on the talk boards later that evening that he actually made it home.
Special thanks goes out to our unofficial yelp photographer, Dan G,
for not only taking fabulous pictures,
but also adding to the fun of the party. And of course a BIG thanks to
Stone Lotus for going above and beyond to make Yelp Chicago's birthday a
success, BomBon
Americano for satisfying our sweet tooth, and Svedka Vodka for keeping the booze flowing.
SYOY!
