Graceland Cemetery is to historians what Graceland is to Elvis fans. Everywhere you look lies a famous Chicago politician, artist, or celebrity. Potter and Bertha Palmer, Daniel Burnham, John Root, Louis Sullivan, George Pullman, Gordon Hubbard, Marshall Field, Allan Pinkerton, and Ernie Banks ("Mr. Cub") are just a handful of notable people hanging out here. It's a few blocks north of Wrigley Field and some of the graves are worth more than Wrigley Field.
