## Caption

A rat-shaped hole in a Chicago sidewalk became an overnight underground sensation this winter—so much so that it’s now a local tourist destination, scattered with candles, coins, and tiny Malört shot bottles. The spot on the sidewalk was even the grounds for a 50-plus person wedding. ⁠
⁠
