A Timeline of the Chicago Flying Humanoid Sightings So Far

MEN IN BLACK .- So far there have been 30 reported sightings of a large, flying humanoid in Chicago in 2017, three prior sightings that took place in 2011, one in 2016, and one from across Lake Michigan in Indiana from the early 2000s.  They've been reported out of chronological order, so we've put together a timeline of the reports, with links to the articles that describe them, to help you contextualize the sightings.  Most of the sightings have taken place in Chicago's lakefront area, within a few miles of Lake Michigan.
