About the event
Relax with us on Marathon Monday as we host our Introduction to Mahjong session (Hong Kong style) - the format closest to the game's roots and still the most widely played version across East and South East Asia. If you've only ever seen the American version, this is where it came from.
We'll walk you through the full game: how walls get built, what makes a meld, how chows, pungs, and kongs work, and how to read a hand worth winning.
No experience necessary. Traditional tile sets are provided.
Your ticket includes 1 beverage. Bring in your Chicago Marathon medal and get a free pastry!
