Years ago I was in a company training class and there was this really obnoxious guy, from out of town, who wanted to know "where the action was." Just a total jerk. Finally a couple of us told him to go to the Bijou and that was where the action was in Chicago. Needless to say he was not a happy camper at class the next morning. We told him hey, "you didn't define action."
They used to/ maybe still do have a phone number where the "voice of the Bijou" would give plot summaries of the movies showing that week. This guy was hysterical. Almost had you believing that if you were trapped in a mine cave in, that having sex with your fellow miners was a logical thing to do. I have only been once. I lost a bet with my s.o. over something stupid. It was summer time so I had to go the Bijou in gym shorts and a tank top. I run so I am in decent shape. Had to stay for an hour. I was amazed at all the people who want to be my friend. I did briefly see three guys who were doing a "lucky Pierre." The middle guy in a three way coupling...
The gay bar that used to be downstairs from there (the Bijou was up the stairs and Carroll's was below grade, IIRC). My ex-brother-in-law's cousin used to work there back around that time. Freaked him out but good, as you might imagine.
Mostly gay guys, they have parties in the back area which is like 2/3 stories... 1st time I went there with my gay BFs they wouldn't let me in stating it's a male only club... I joked & said I was post OP-Ed tranny & the door guy said "No you're not"... But I went to an event one of my gay BFs was hosting as a dancer on valentines weekend & it's OMG.... (That's how I would describe my experience)... They have little room where guys can go into to make out in... Lots of condoms available at each area.... The layout is like a maze & has signs in each area..,(see attached photo-that was my favorite sign).... My mouth dropped.... I had couple gf's w/me & we laughed, blushed a lot but had fun fun.... When u enter it's set up like a movie theater w/gay porn playing on a big screen (theater).... Bring a gay friend & maybe they will let u in.. The cover is like $20....

Back when theaters used to play voice messages of their upcoming shows, a local DJ named Steve Dahl used to play them on his show and they always got lots of laughs. Of course, a high-school age bhoys1974 and friends used to have a blast forwarding the calls to unsuspecting friends/family.
An old friend used to drive for a local soft-drink distributor and, of course, the bijou was on his route. Even then, it was known as a notorious cruising place but gay friends tell me there weren't many options back then.
