Summer in Chicago means a festival almost every weekend, replete with music, food, street drinking dancing and entertainment. MaiFest is a celebration of Lincoln Square's German heritage supplying the revelers with giant beer steins, bratwurst and sauerkraut, traditional Lederhosen, and German polka music aplenty. Jesse White Tumblers also made an appearance and enthralled the crowd with their high velocity acrobatics and infectious energy. The man himself, Jesse White, was also on hand to remind the crowd to stay out of the tumblers way or else he might just have to suspend your license. He also took part in the action by doing a headstand while the Tumblers jumped through his legs.  All in all another great Chicago tradition; the streetfest, pulled off brilliantly.
