The Bears' "Hard Knocks" cameras followed wide receiver DJ Moore and his family to the Chicago famous "Museum of Ice Cream" during the second episode of the series, which was released Tuesday.
What is the "Museum of Ice Cream"?
Chicago's "Museum of Ice Cream" is one of six worldwide locations that offers ice cream-themed fun with unlimited servings of ice cream. The museum in Chicago has 14 interactive playscapes, exclusive sweet treats --- such as the hot dog-inspired ice cream Moore ate on screen --- and, of course, their world-famous sprinkle pool, which Moore's daughter, Arielle, adorably played in with the rest of the family.
The Chicago Museum is located at 435 N. Michigan Ave in the downtown Chicago area. Ticket prices vary between timing and demand, but general admission goes for as low as $24, according to their website.
WHEN DOES “HARD KNOCKS” START?
The first two episodes of "Hard Knocks" live on the Max streaming application. HBO and Max release a new episode every Tuesday at 8 p.m. (CT). The third episode will air on Aug. 20.
