Daley's City Hall going after Bears season ticket holders for back taxes

The Chicago Tribune reports:

A cash-strapped city has informed some Chicago Bears season ticket-holders they might be forced to pay amusement taxes on licenses purchased up to seven years ago that simply allowed them to buy their tickets in the first place.

A Bears spokesman confirmed the organization received "some calls" from permanent-seat license-holders who received the letters Wednesday. One letter, provided to the Tribune by a ticket-holder, indicates the amusement tax tab for two seat licenses purchased five years ago could top $500.

Is Chicago more hard up for cash than you think?
