Last year and I assume this year too
wait until about mid-May when they are 10-15 out and a train wreck, then go to Stub Hub and pay 1/2 face value. No lie, this was the case last year, of course not with Cub/Sox or Cards or Red Sox games this year, but pretty much any others should be the same.

Bleachers are the way to go if it's your first time, just lots of fun and really there are very few bad seats at Wrigley because everything is pretty close to the field, they are the friendly confines after-all. Parking stinks, there is no parking unless you pay someone $50 to park in their garage. If you have a hotel, park there and take the L, it drops you off right outside and it's cheap... Anyway, enjoy, I always do.
Cheers, Jim

Go for it
Sean,
If this is going to be your only time at Wrigley, spring for the good seats. My one and only game at Wrigley, I got a seat about three rows behind the far corner of the home dugout. I paid more than I've ever paid for any other ticket, but it was worth it. Sitting right at field level you get a different feel for the game. Plus, the home bullpen is right there. If you're going for the "ballpark atmosphere" of Wrigley, then just about any seat will do in that old rattletrap. If you're going for the immediacy of the game, then down on the field is the way to go. Bill

awesome, i was tempted to get Bleachers but I got one next to the press box as the picture from the seat looked too good to pass up. Hopefully things are as easy to see in reality as they seem from this picture?

Cheapest place to get Cubs tickets is when they play in Pittsburgh
 Costs me nothing Costs regular fans some years off their life watching them Costs Cubs fans about $10 for good seats

Wrigley is packed beyond belief, no parking or extremely expensive parking. Ticket prices are high. I love going to the Cell, yes there are less fans but I love it. You don't have to sit shoulder to shoulder with strangers, the food tastes way better at the Cell, and it's a beautiful park. Go White Sox!

I hope none of you were stupid enough to pay face value (or over) or get them on Ebay. If u listened to me you were wise, if u didn't, you'll learn. They are giving tickets away to Cubs games on Stub hub, going from $2.70 a ticket and up Last edited by Shoeless Moe; 04-19-2012 at 03:05 PM.
