About 250 protestors marched outside of Chicago’s City Hall on Tuesday night in opposition to the city’s bid to land the 2016 Olympic Games.

Many of the protestors were from the group No Games Chicago, which has built a Web site and sent documents to the International Olympic Committee explaining why the group opposes the city’s bid.

Chicago Storytelling’s Forrest Davis shot photos of the protest.
