Tried the West Side Market on a Tuesday instead of a weekend

I always thought weekends were the only time to go for the full experience. But last month I had a Tuesday off and figured I'd see what the hype was about with quieter days. Way less crowding at the produce stands, and one of the meat vendors actually took time to explain how to pick a good roast. I was skeptical it would feel dead, but it was still lively just more manageable. Has anyone else noticed certain vendors are more chatty on weekdays?

Ngl, I actually prefer the chaos on weekends. Feels more authentic.

Feels more authentic" - yeah, I get that. Reminds me of the time my neighbor's cat got loose during a block party and we spent an hour chasing it through everyone's yards. Total chaos, but honestly? That was the highlight of the whole summer.
