Will I meet fellow net54 guys?
I’ve been to every national in Chicago. Great deals can be found on Sundays.

Count on October if you're lucky, and don't expect many deals.

Expect nothing to be priced reasonably and to rage buy a card for more than you'd like to pay before you leave.

Expect crickets. My guess is that the National will be cancelled.

Unless you are expecting madness, dont think any predictions made for a National in this market will be correct.

The market is insane. We’ve never seen anything like it. A National will be unlike anything any of us have seen.

I can see it being moved to October, but another cancellation would surprise me. Illinois is opening up.

That is always subject to change, but it is trending well here.

Nope. Chicago will be fully and safely reopened by July 4. I've been to four Cubs games this season and everything has been smooth as silk. The tickets are reasonable and, as in the past, cheap in the colder days early in the season. The cap is 10,340. I had the pleasure of eating inside a restaurant ahead of yesterday's game and the capacity in eateries will continue to be expanded. We're going to get our tourism economy back up to snuff this summer-despite naysayers-and prove large outdoor events can be conducted safely.
