Things to see in Chicago as an MWC fan

At one point in my life, I intend on going to the States again, this time visiting Chicago, Detroit, Washington and New York. What I'm wondering is, as a big MWC fan, what is there to see in Chicago that is connected to the show? The only two things I can come up with is the fountain that we see in the opening sequence of the credits, and the actual Bundy house.

But are there any other stuff used or referenced on the show that would be worthwhile visiting?

Sounds like a great holiday! I can't actually think of anything else either.
Does anyone know the actual address of the Bundy house in real life?

I think it's posted somewhere on the forum. I could be wrong though.

So many places in the show are made up, like the Chicago Institute of Bugs and Vermin. :)

Hmm, show-related sights....you could take in a Cubs game. I'm sure Lake Michigan is mentioned. Hard to miss it. Hmmm....

I'm gonna think about this one.

Edit: Up until a few years ago you could have seen a taping of the Jerry Springer Show, that was produced in Chicago. Man, that would have been a good autograph photo for you, pretty unique
