Firefighters were called to the Park Monroe Condominiums, 65 E. Monroe St. near Millennium Park, about 9:15 p.m. to rescue a man who was trapped in a stalled elevator between the 21st and 22nd floor of the 49-story building, fire officials said.
A firefighter went up in another elevator in an adjoining shaft, exited through the ceiling hatch to get to the other elevator's hatch, and brought the trapped man into the second elevator, officials said.
Then that elevator became stuck.
The two men then had to be rescued by another firefighter sent up in yet a third elevator

Well this man had a sucky day. But it could have been worse. Much worse. I'm sure the firefighter wasn't too thrilled either.
