847 is the area code for people who live close to chicago and love the city. we're from the northside, and mostly love the cubs. we don't have bangwagon fans like the sox do, who don't give a crap about their team in '04 but then all of sudden the sox do good and boom - bandwagon fans everywhere.

One of America's worst area codes, solely because it's in Illinois. I handled a call from one of its inhabitants at my old job. The inhabitant from the 847 refused to give the three-digit customer information number on her credit card as required for all transactions over the phone at the call center where I worked.
Why are you special? Is it because you're from the 847?
