inGot stuck on the Brown Line at 7:40am with no cell signal and missed my stop on purpose
A paper map in your bag is such a good backup plan. I read a thread on r/chicago once where people were listing the dead spots on the Red Line between stations, and a bunch of them said the tunnels downtown basically kill your signal every time. So it's not just you, the whole system has spots where your phone just gives up.
