I Rode Into Chicago's CHAOTIC Puerto Rican Day Parade…
Added:Got to get the [ __ ] out of here.
>> My people got hit by the car.
>> You guys got a report of a gun.
>> Yeah, >> you're goofy ass.
>> I knew you were ugly, but I don't remember you being that ugly.
>> Boys are rolling in hot. [screaming] Welcome to humble fun in custody.
>> Let me get on with you.
>> Why are there all these girls working on my bike all the time?
>> What's up, guys? Sorry for interrupting the Puerto Rican Day parade 2026. One of my favorite videos I always get to record here in Chicago, but I do have to remind you that we are giving away this 2000 FXDL dino over on my Patreon. The patronons have been the lifeblood of this channel since the beginning.
Whether or not YouTube likes the video or not, you guys always support our channel. So, this is just another way that we give back to you guys. This is our eighth bike we've given away over there, and this is probably my favorite one of them all. Every dollar you're pledged over there for the next two months is entries into winning my Harley-Davidson FXDL. I've done road trips on it, so many different videos on it, and uh I truly love this bike, and I hope it goes to a good home to one of you guys watching right now. Let's get back to this year's Puerto Rican Day parade. What is up ladies, gentlemen, boys and girls. It is your least favorite model vlogger, Brian 636.
Coming to you live from Summertime Shy from one of my favorite videos I get to do every single year. Today we are going to the Puerto Rican Day parade in Humble Park. We are currently [music] on Madison and Kilburn about to get uh some gas in the neighborhood of West Garfield [music] Park. And it's beautiful out here. It really is. I'm going to try to make the intro as short as possible on this one and just get into it quick [music] for y'all. I mean that too. I mean, play some of the recaps of the previous years that I've gone. It's insane.
I'll turn it around. Did they spray paint the side of your car?
>> What the with the jiggle? [music] Is >> that Spider-Man or a cop? What the hell?
Seeing more of this damage to the police cars down here.
>> I knew how to ride something.
>> My boy's on spinners. That shit's sick, dude. Yeah, that's gangster. That's gangster. There she is.
How are you? I said, "How are you?"
Yeah. You good?
Huh?
Oh, you're trying to get money. You and me both, baby. I got to go to the Puerto Rican Day parade, though. All right, have fun. That girl had it all hanging on. Holy hell.
Jumping my 45636.
There's so many speed bumps on side streets here on the west and south [music] sides. Even on the north side, it's just all over the city. They put speed bumps all over the damn place.
Might as well jump them, you know. Like I said, we're to the neighborhood to the south of Humble Park right now in Garfield [music] Park. Pretty much have to head straight north uh to get into Humble Park. In the summertime, CPD almost always has a unit just sitting right here in the middle [music] of uh Garfield Park's business district.
Basically monitoring any type of issue that comes up within this super active couple block area. You know what we do with a Suzuki or what is that? A Honda?
It is on my boy's rolling. Oh, that's kind of cool. The Junth flag [music] and Puerto Rican day flag. Oh, look at the spider crew out front. Gotcha faded.
There was actually just a mass shooting there a [music] couple weeks ago. Oh, looks like they're having a graduation day party in the park. Not a lot of people came though. Or maybe it's just early on. I don't know. Stop the beef.
A. I like the mini bikes.
Love it. A lot of people getting ready to go over to the park. This is how you know you're starting to get at least towards the park. You'll see the neighborhood slowly change from [music] a more African-American community within Garfield Park to a more Puerto Rican uh community, which is Humble Park. And you might be wondering, why do they even do a parade all these years? What are we celebrating? What are we doing here?
We're celebrating the more than 5.8 million Puerto Ricans that call the USA home and the 3.2 million that are still on the island. Obviously, Puerto Rico is a US [music] territory. And as far as the country we have close ties to, I don't think there's one that has closer ties to us. The tab down Mustang big dog. What up?
>> You got to get the [ __ ] out of here, dude. They're going to start grabbing bikes.
>> Really?
You got to get the [ __ ] out of here, dude. They're going to start grabbing bikes. Well, I just got here, so I mean, I guess I'm going to have to just keep my head on a swivel. All right, we have officially made it into Humble Park as soon as we cross over Grand Avenue, and the stand still. Traffic has begun.
Stand still. I mean, if you are truly driving a car in this, [music] you are absolutely nuts. What up? What up? What up? What up? And welcome to the culture of Humble Park, man. [music] It is so sick. Once a year, the entire neighborhood comes out. That thing's sick. Look at the banshee in the back of the Jeep. Beautiful banshee, too.
Heat. Heat.
[music] [music] Heat.
Heat.
Oh, he said it's a snake. [music] >> What? Every time I come to Humble Park, I see a snake. Oh my god. I guess we can [music] take advantage of this time to get a little warm up, huh?
>> [music] >> Classic GSXR right there. The flat carbs. That's sick, man. Late 90s, maybe mid '90s, actually. Look at the sound system.
Holy [ __ ] [music] Oh, I guess I should say this right at the beginning of the video. YouTube, this is obviously permitted. The city of Chicago sets aside hundreds [music] of police officers to make this as safe, permitted, respectful of an event as possible.
>> What up, baby? Oh, look at this sick G, dude. That thing's gangster. You know, I'm a Kanye boy. 92 93 >> 93 [music] 92 I was spot on. And these are original fairings, huh? That's so gangster, dude.
With the inline four mucunis, you don't see them anymore.
>> This put 1100 motor on.
>> Wow.
>> This is a 750.
>> Wow.
>> It's beautiful, man.
>> You got a screwdriver?
>> A screwdriver? I don't. I'm sorry. So many dirt bikes out here, dude.
Look at a drag mini bike, dude. Those things are pretty quick.
>> I want to break up.
I'm sorry.
You know I love you.
>> CP3.
>> I like that thing now that I got the R9.
Going to have a hard time keeping this thing cool today. 217 just sitting.
A little bit of circle warm up. Hey, the boys Oh, is that GRC 650? Yeah, that's a old school, man. That's an air cooled one.
>> What up, baby?
What up?
Be safe out here. Look at the sounds in this CRV. Holy [ __ ] We're right on the border here at Garfield Park and uh Humble Park. So, still see a [music] decent amount of African-American and Puerto Rican culture coming together. So every year June 14th weekend the annual parade amusement parks and entirely the uh the entire heart of the neighborhood park itself is closed down for amusement rides vendors and it's just a full weekend to celebrate the heritage of Puerto [music] Ricans here in Chicago specifically park has been the destination for Puerto Ricans and migrants for decades here in the city.
Why? Great homes, [music] affordable housing, and pretty decent schools. I wouldn't say they're the best school, but yeah, pretty decent school. However, every single year this parade and event gets a pretty bad rep because there's always at least one act of violence like at a mass scale, whether it's a multi-person shooting or just gang retaliation back and forth. Oh, Dan, that's that CRV we just saw. He might be having electric problems, [music] huh?
Guys, I can get some air bills. 197.
The culture in Humble Park is very unique as well. You see lots of stretch MC's, FC's, lots [music] of DRZ, 450, 650s on a lot of these, a lot of the jerseys, bright colors, sound systems, JDM cars, like the motorsports culture cannot be underestimated when it comes to importance within this neighborhood.
I can only imagine the amount of enforcement and headache that CPD has to deal with with these flag cars and people hanging out of and openly drinking and driving. That's probably their biggest citation this week is DWI or something like that or open container. I think as long as no one gets killed, the CPD can call this one a success. But, uh, it's very early in the day and we're going to have to wait and see [music] how that ends up. Damn, dude. Blow your roll. Oh, they literally just had this closed CPD.
Now it's open. You're going to see a lot of uh a lot of roads closed, open, map open, map closed, [music] and CPD's attempt to kind of control things the best they can, confine it to certain areas. Wow. Look at Division Street, bro. Holy [ __ ] Yeah, CPD is having to escort emergency vehicles. Imagine trying to get into emergency in this. Holy [ __ ] bro. You don't even have to talk in a vlog like this. This is just Wow. Only Humble Park, baby. Only Humble Park. [music] My voice [music] me.
[music] >> Huh?
>> Is it blinking?
>> Is it blinking? But maybe.
>> Welcome to Humble B.
What up? What up? What up?
>> [music] >> I can't hear you. I can't hear you. I hear you.
>> I can't hear you.
Oh my god, baby.
Look at the side by sides.
You're my favorite.
>> I appreciate that, brother. Thank you.
[music] >> Yeah. Yeah.
>> That's sick. That's it, huh? What the hell? Oh, hell no.
[music] Wow, bro. This is some big big big money right here. Gangster as [ __ ] And it's got a license plate. It's illegal.
That's sick. I haven't seen you in forever.
>> Yeah. Hell yeah. This year is crazy, dude. This is one of a couple hot spots for riders in the park. I don't know if you would show a picture of the park, but we are in the southwest corridor of Humble Park right now. As the night goes on, we'll get closer to where the parade and all that stuff ends. However, right now, this is one of the kind of safe spots for riders to hang out, chill, listen to music. Cuz obviously, if you go down to the main strip, they're going to have a problem with it.
>> [music] >> money.
[music] No, no, no. [music] CP's got the same trans as me. That [music] thing's nice. Very nice.
Heat. Heat.
[music] >> [music] [music] >> Put on a First, wrap up the park. What we got over here? A bunch of beginner motorcycles. Hello. Good boy. On the bridge.
Guys, I'm going to take off my helmet and chill for a little bit. I only got two batteries here the whole time.
That's my family. I've always been so welcome here. I know there's a whole lot of people out coming here. Everyone's like, "Why are you doing that? What are you doing?" But I love it. [music] >> [music] >> [ __ ] crazy, man.
[music] Look >> [music] [music] >> at this guy.
>> That is a crazy sportster motor. Just chopper. [music] Wild. No front brakes.
All right, guys. We're going to go ride around a little bit. I don't want to just stay on this one block for too long. Some of the Indiana dirt bike boys.
You remember me from last year?
>> Yeah. Get on.
>> Okay. You're nice.
>> [laughter] >> Be safe by guys.
>> What the [ __ ] [laughter] >> What up? What up?
>> You want another video today?
>> Yes, sir.
>> Pop it up. Pop it up.
Appreciate that, homie. Reporting >> right now.
>> Yes, sir. We're live for the Puerto Rican Day parade. All right, guys. The parade is over and Division Street is starting to clear off, although it is closed to pretty much all [music] traffic. We snuck back road the whole way. I don't know. Show that in fast forward. be like sucker whing.
[music] [music] This is so sick, dude.
[music] >> What up? What up?
>> I love your videos.
>> Appreciate that, homie. Thank you guys, man. Thank you. Look at those glasses.
Look at those glasses. What the [ __ ] The Ultra B. Sick. The purple rims.
Purple controller. Huh?
>> 75 horsepower.
>> You said it's 75 horsepower. That's almost as much as my Stark.
>> Faster than a Stark.
>> Really?
>> Wow. [music] >> Got battery, motor, everything.
>> Yeah, that thing's gangster.
So many riders here, bro. What up, baby?
Where's your bike?
>> At home.
>> Oh, okay. Uh, so if you see the Puerto Rican flag over Division Street to the west, and then there's another one way down there to the east. And it basically covers all of Humble Park's business district here, which is home to so many different cafes, bars, restaurants, yo yo. And just Puerto Rican culture here in this neighborhood. This neighborhood consistently is in the top 10 most dangerous neighborhoods in the [music] city. But I like to think that events like this break that stereotype pretty well. You know what? For the most part, every single time I've come here, it's been nothing but love and acceptance.
even though I'm not Puerto Rican, they they do a >> Yo yo, they love me just for uh putting Chicago on the map and putting motorsports on the map and uh showing everyone here respect and love and it's always been good. Yo, what up, baby? How are you guys?
>> Good to see you, huh? Humble Park is pretty known for well-known games like The [music] Satan Disciples. I did a music video for a pretty well-known Satan Disciple way back when out of a pretty uh notorious part of this neighborhood, Grand City. And uh I won't really mention too much more than that.
I've since stopped doing rap music videos here in the city as I just don't know if it's the smartest thing to do.
So, [music] I just don't do them anymore as far as like features and rap videos.
They say being a rapper in Chicago is the most dangerous job in the city because you represent [music] your sub block, your click, your gang. And uh yeah, it's just it's become a very dangerous job. But let me take off my helmet. I'm going to get something to eat, get something to drink, chill for a little bit, and save some GoPro battery.
>> There is crazy ass things, man. What the >> you know how we do this?
>> Some cool live music going on in the middle of Division Street. We got food coming, drinks coming. Going to let a couple of the GoPro batteries charge, but um I'm just walking around enjoying this, man. [music] Really kind of trying to immerse myself in Humble Park's culture. I've always enjoyed coming here. It's been a part of Hood Eats since episode 2 or three, like really early [music] on. So, been riding here and a lot of the locals have known me here for a long time and I love it here.
It is fun. One of the nastiest boosters in the city. Give that thing some gas, boys. Just trying to get through.
Rolling two cars deep. Jump out boys, all four doors, and jump [music] out girls.
Got to love this, too. Community policing like that, man. It's sick.
>> You guys are going to shoot a music video right here.
>> Is it okay?
>> That's cool.
>> Go ahead.
>> Welcome to the YouTube live in the back.
You want to be on the >> I'm cool. I don't do music videos. Y'all can have my mic though. Oh, hell no. Oh, hell no.
Did I just let do a music video on my mic?
>> I know.
>> Oh, hell no. Here we go.
Why my bike, bro?
God damn it.
[laughter] >> The Knox are just rolling through, man.
It's their parade.
>> Trying to get more and more riders over here, man. As the day goes on, more bikes just keep blowing off. Beautiful.
>> That would be really loud if it wasn't a stock exhaust. [music] What up, baby?
>> Hey, what the [ __ ] going on, Chuck?
>> You know how we do this?
>> How we doing things?
>> Maliciously.
>> Way. It's a different way.
>> Maliciously.
>> You know that, guys?
>> Hey, what's the word, baby? Look at this crazy ass thing. Electric go-kart. What in the All types of random [ __ ] Look at this boy. There he is. Yeah, they got this spot locked down, man.
>> What up, baby?
>> What up, lady?
>> I get a whole kiss now.
>> My family was on that video.
>> Oh, really?
>> Right now, >> maybe.

>> Well, look look. Give give my info.
>> I don't really do a lot of live streaming much, but >> it'll be it'll be the first time when I with Chris do. It was his first time on stream >> and then he started streaming.
>> You're my age, right?
>> I don't think I'm your age. [music] >> No, you're in your 30s.
>> In your 30s?
>> Oh yeah. Yeah, I'm in my early 30s.

>> I'll do a little something.
I'm out of here, baby. I'm going to go explore the park.
>> Shut up. Shut up. My boy said I'm looking swole. He looks like he lost some weight. I love seeing my boys do well for themselves like that. So much of the community, so much of the police just kind of like love this gun scene in one way or another, man. It's pretty cool. Damn, look at the damage from the storm.

They're mad. [laughter] They made everyone dump out their drinks. Take their flags off. Time and place, man. When the cops are pissed and they're already, you know, towing a vehicle and making people dump their [music] drinks and stuff, I think they're just there's people, too. They get aggravated with drunk people shutting down a road that maybe they don't want shut down.

Damn, they got all of North Avenue closed all the way down to Western and then all the way down to Sorry. Then all the way down to I don't even know, Kedy or something.
They're racing.
Them boys are racing. [music] Got mini bikes out here with the misguided plate on them. That's pretty cool. God damn.
He's peeling out. I don't know what's going on, man. But look at the police presence over here. Something happened.
Looks like something bad happened. Oh [ __ ] This Kenzie and [music] Cortez.
All the crowns and shags out here, man.
Huge Hispanic gang presence here in Elmo Park. [music] You can definitely feel some tension here.
>> What up? What up? What up, guys? [music] >> Yeah. Yeah, that's cool. This is what you guys came here for.
>> What up?
>> Holy [ __ ] They just targeted this guy up pretty quick.
With this kind of police presence, man, there could only be one thing that they got to call for and that's probably a person with a gun. Definitely definitely crazy out here this year. It is a wild year. Seems like they're starting to focus on a group of guys over there.
They're looking for guns, man. You can feel it. Ted Cortez, >> you were here last time, right?
>> Oh, yeah. I come here every year.
>> Green bike, right?
>> Yep. I've had green bikes, red bikes.
Oh, yeah. All that. We recognize that dump pouch anywhere.
>> Hey, you mess with bikes.
>> Do I mess with bikes?
>> Yeah. Like >> my whole life is bikes. My whole life, my whole existence, my whole purpose, my whole purpose is bikes. So, you do, you really do have Satan disciples and Latin kings operating in this neighborhood, which do make it so dangerous, especially when they get reports for a person with a gun at a big uh gathering like this. Oh, yeah. They're singling someone in that crowd out. You guys going to ride bikes when you get older?
>> Oh, you do?
>> That's cool. What up?
>> Where are you at? [music] Wentworth.
>> Cool. not pulled out of here yet. You make a video for it.
>> Oh, yeah. No, I come here every year, man.
>> I know. I know. [music] >> Every year it's it's always >> couple years videos always blow up.
>> Yeah, they do.
>> The first year I came here, it was here, Kenzie and Cortez. It just got really crazy.
>> Just going to go crazy.
>> Yeah. The the other side of the park is a little bit more family friendly, you know.
>> Yeah. It's more so like around humble vest and everything.
>> Once you get over here, >> you guys got a report of a gun.
>> Yeah. Oh, we just came over [music] here and then we just got one right now. So, >> Oh, you got a gun. You got a gun just now.
>> There's plenty out here.
>> Oh, yeah. You get get plenty of UWS today, huh? Be safe, bro.
>> Be safe. Yeah. Pleasure. Pleasure to meet you, man. [music] >> Yeah. Who's that? Who's that marine with a dump pouch? I saw somebody walking around here with a dump pouch.
>> I saw a tan dump pouch. I was like, I know what that is.
>> One of the guys on my team.
>> Okay.
>> Maybe that's who it was. Oh, do your thing, man.
>> Yeah. All right, brother.
>> All right, homie. I don't think there's too many people here in the city, man, that can dap up. dudes from the neighborhoods also dap up cops. It's just a it's an acquired skill.
Definitely eerie, man. There's whole like groups of guys with uh all black suits and face masks just kind of walking around and the cops are just kind of eyeing everyone down. Spanish cobras uh maniac Latin disciples and Latin kings all share this neighborhood.
And this is a pretty stronghold over here [music] for the kings for decades.
Go to my video from what is it 2022, maybe 2023 when we were at this intersection for a while. Telling you, it's intense when these guys roll in that deep like that.
We are going down.
I got one one in custody. It looks like they arrested two guys, man, just now. You know, one that we got on video and one that we didn't. It was just you could hear a pin drop, man, as these cops were walking through this crowd. I feel like those are the forgotten victims. A lot of the gang wars, man. You drive around a lot of these violent neighborhoods long enough, you'll see a lot of young guys in wheelchairs like that, whether they're paraplegic, they got hit in their spine, nerve damage, anything like that. It's really common for a lot of shooting victims to be wheelchair bound for years, if not the [music] rest of their life.
>> See you later, boys.
>> Are you?
>> Yeah.
>> Nice to meet you.
>> What up, homie?
>> What's up?
>> Busy day.
>> Yeah, I know. I was just over there.
They got like two guys with guns on Cortez and Ketsy. Yeah.
>> Crazy. Where are you out of office of consultation?
>> 18 and then a 15.
>> Okay. Oh, cool. You're my neighbor.
That's how you know me. Okay.
>> South. South.
Everyone's screaming at me. I'm excited to just keep exploring the neighborhood.
Man, the entire neighborhood is packed this year. The entire neighborhood. It's not just a street, a blop here and there. It is everywhere. [music] >> Are you guys doing burnout? Are you guys doing burnouts without me?
>> Yeah. Come on, buddy.
>> Oh, man.
Look at that. [music] [music] >> See you later, boys.
>> Nice to see you, bro.
>> Good to see you, brother. You guys are doing better than I move. Like I said, man, car culture here in Humble Park is just huge. Whether it's it's cool stuff like JDM CRVS in great condition like that to the sound cars to the muscle cars. It's just so cool.
Vintage, you name it, it's here. Bikes, quads, off-road, uh side by sides. This beautiful thing, huh? Good god.
Holy rat rod.
Yeah, that thing's sick. The small block.
>> [music] >> I think the only part of the neighborhood we haven't really explored is the park itself. And Humble Park is a huge park at that, man. It is massive.
Designed by I forgot who, Humble back in the late 1800s. This park quickly became the largest park on the west side. Take a look at it. There used to be an alligator that lived here called Chance the Snapper instead of Chance the Rapper. And he lived in the pond that is on the property [music] of the park.
He's riding all the car tickets, not the bikes. But if a [music] car is still parked there, he's just giving them a ticket. We're with the pop, baby. We're with the game.
Whoa. This dude's got an air horn on a drill.
Look at this thing.
You got a whole ass ride out going on up here, bro. There's a decent amount of homeless population here on the west end of division. Look at this loud night for them, man. The speakers, cars, bikes.
What up? Oh yeah, it's a party.
>> So many stretched MTs, [music] man.
M09's and Banshees. [ __ ] man.
Woo!
[music] >> What is going on? They're beating the hell out of a piñata. Oh, you're good.
You're good.
Why are they all clapping for me? I [music] didn't do anything. I just literally rode by.
>> What up?
>> I just passed my MSF, bro. You inspired me, dog.
>> Oh, I appreciate it. Congrat. I love y'all.
>> Congratulations, bro. Thank you.
Congratulations.
>> I'm just talking [ __ ] But yo, crazy to see you out here, dog.
>> Appreciate it, bro. Wa.
>> Your bike says [ __ ] >> Real [ __ ] in the street, bro. Don't press him. You got that.
>> Can I ride?
>> Yeah.
>> I'm almost out of gas.
>> Yeah. 12 is >> But your white says [ __ ] >> I know.
>> I'm a noother.
>> No, we're not. We're black people. We're not >> white.
>> You're white, right?
>> Yeah. Italian.
>> You're white.
>> A black dude.
>> Okay. Can I ride? [laughter] >> Hey, congrats, bro.
>> Come see us at misguided.
>> [ __ ] with you.
>> All right, cool. This is back when Kawasaki was making bikes that were a little less PC.
>> Yeah, that one.
>> That's me.
>> Man, I feel like I'm being questioned.
Let me take a quick [laughter] >> I am. Yeah. See you later, guys. [music] >> Yes, sir. [laughter] >> The cops are shutting this [ __ ] down, huh? There's no more riders [music] here, man.
>> That alley in the back right there.
>> All right. Damn, dude. I think the police really do want people to just go home this year. [music] I haven't just done some solo stuff just yet, have I?
As the night gets darker here in Humble Park, man, especially after that whole gun situation, like you just feel it slowly slowly build a little bit more tension just because you you know the gangs that are operating in this neighborhood. you know, the amount of alcohol that's been flowing. And uh every year, I was here last year and right at this gas station right here at the corner, uh multiple people were shot. So, you definitely have to keep your head on a swivel and you definitely have to be [music] aware of who you're surrounding yourself with. If you're watching me when I was on the King's Block, like I was on the King's Block, but I wasn't around the group of Latin Kings. I wasn't in the mix with them.
You know what I mean? I feel like there is like little survival stuff that can help you survive this city. Little tips and tricks. What happened? I was I was gone for like an hour and now the [ __ ] cops are here.
>> Where were you? Where were you?
>> I was on the other side of the park.
>> The burnout mark in the middle of it all.
>> The mini bike boys.
55. Damn, he's got a predator motor in a [ __ ] Oh, wow. That's crazy.
>> [laughter] >> looking.

>> The R9's nice.

>> A lot. You know what I always say to him? What?
>> You should earn it. Like how I ear I earned my first bike.
>> No one tells me to tell you to give me a free bike.
>> No one should be given a free bike. No one should be given a free car, free bike, free house. You should have to earn everything. That's my opinion. But yeah, kids ask me that every day.
