Hall of Fame helps raise cash for Chicago bid

Chicago's Olympic boosters will channel one last cash infusion into the city's 2016 campaign tonight in what is expected to be the most highly attended of three major fundraisers for the bid.

An estimated 3,300 supporters, or 1,000 more than attended last year's fundraiser, have paid at least $500 per ticket to attend the 2009 U.S. Olympic Hall of Fame induction ceremony at McCormick Place. Chicago Tribune
