Hi everyone,
New to the boards here.. Been searching Chicago sports websites/forums for awhile now and this looks to be one of the best.
I'm from AZ, but been a Chicago fan my whole life (both parents are from Chicago) Anyways, I'm gonna be back in town for my first Cubs game in a couple years.. I've never sat in the bleachers, and was wondering if anyone wouldn't mind giving me a quick rundown of them..
Is best place to sit right field? Say if I wanted to get a seat in the first row closest to the ivy, how early would I need to enter the stadium? An hour before game time? More than an hour? It's gonna be a 1:20pm game on a Thursday, July 31st vs the Rockies.. but there might be a lot of visitors in town to attend Lollapalooza so I'm not sure how fast they usually fill up.
I saw I can still buy tickets on the website for the bleachers for around $40.. Was also curious if that would be my best bet in advance or can I possibly get them cheaper off a scalper day of since they're out of the playoff picture.
Any help with need to know bleacher info would be appreciated.. Sorry in advance if this post belongs in another forum.
And i know it may sound weird but hey if anyone is attending that game as well and wants to meet up and sit in the bleachers and pound some beers before the game let me know… I will be solo, but promise I'm not a nutcase lol.. My girlfriend isn't traveling with me this trip, and I'm staying with a friend near Wrigleyville but he isn't getting back into town until the weekend so I'm heading to this game by myself but am gonna make the most of it.
Thanks in advance.. Cant wait to be back in the best city of them all !
