About Valentine's HighBall

One of the venerable ghost stories of Chicago concerns the one survivor of the St. Valentine's Day Massacre: Highball the dog, who was tied to one of the axles of the trucks in the garage.

It's said that Highball, a dog tied to one of the trucks, barked wildly during the shooting, alerting neighbors. Some claim his panic left a spooky vibe. Even after the garage was torn down, dogs passing by would act crazy. But on one tour, when sneaky passengers brought dogs, one of them just strolled through without a fuss. Turns out, not every legend holds up!
