  Once a year, MAFIA takes over Steamworks during the most prestigious weekend in leather. Our biggest Invasion of the year brings fisters from around the world together on the third floor play space to show off, connect, and remind everyone exactly what Chicago does best.

  The biggest perk? MAFIA priority entry. IML weekend means the line at Steamworks wraps around the block. MAFIA members and Invasion guests skip it entirely. While everyone else waits outside, you'll already be wrist deep in the action.

  As usual, we are taking the whole 3rd floor gym at Steamworks Chicago. Party starts at 9pm.

    The Congress Hotel 520 S Michigan Ave

  
  

  Rush season is here and our sophomore year just got a serious upgrade.

  MAFIA and IML's Fist Club Rush returns bigger, bolder, and now in the Florentine Room, one of the Congress Plaza Hotel's largest ballrooms. Last year over 150 fisters packed a side room and filled every sling. This year we have more room, more slings, and absolutely no chill.

  The front half of the room is your Club Fair. Fisting club representatives from across the country will be on hand. Find a chapter in your city, make connections for your next trip, or learn how to build something in your own hometown. The fisting community is bigger than you think and it's all in this room.

  The back half? That's the Hazing Room. 10 slings, wrestling mats, fisting porn projected, and free X Lube courtesy of our sponsors. This is a full play party with a fraternity problem and the most consensually extreme hazing any pledge has ever survived.

  Prize drawings include Bad Dragon and Friendly Toys goodies plus an instant drawing for a Jim Support sling that the winner takes home same day.

  This is a ticketed event available through IML weekend packages with FREE admission for MAFIA Members. Easily the best perk of your membership.

  Rush responsibly.
