I have never gone to Soldier Field to see the Chicago Bears play...but I have been there for a concert.

I never knew Illinois has a Medieval Torture Museum in Chicago, but I'm pretty sure I'm not brave enough to go there.

And...I have never visited our state capital. (Sad, I know).

Those are just a few of the things I have not done in Illinois yet, but I guarantee I've been missing out on so many more.
