The Theatrics of the Fight

Totally spontaneous arguing from Tuesday's Oak Lawn Village Board meeting.

Not since the days of Moose Cholak and Gorgeous George has Oak Lawn witnessed such a as at Tuesday's village board meeting. We know it was real and not fake like professional wrestling.

Oak Lawn village board members came out of their corners swinging. The only thing missing from the proceedings was Mickey Goldsmith, the trainer from the Rocky movies, adminstering mercurochorme and bandages to the battling village board.

Patch has compiled a highlight reel so you don't have to watch the whole 2 1/2-hour meeting on Channel 4. It's Oak Lawn's own special reality show.
