Bears Offseason

[Jon]

You can buy the expensive club seats today via presale (password is "bears").

[Jon]

There's an automated line that they're now pushing for quick access for big events this weekend (although I didn't see it online). The number is 866-448-7849. Might be worth a shot first.

:nervous:

[Jon]

In case anyone is going to use the automated line and wants to save a little time, here's what to do:

-Press 1 for all NFL games when it starts to give you options

-Press 3 for the Bears

-Press 3 to select by opponent

-Press a number 1-10 followed by # for the specific opponent. They're ordered by date, so San Diego (preseason) is 1, Buffalo is 5, and the Packers are 10

Congrats! My friend and I are blanketing this operation.

[Jon]

sounds like packers tickets at $60 went pretty quickly.

[Jon]

I made the mistake of going for Bills tickets over the phone. Got those easily (can't remember the section. Something like 149). I was able to get some in the 400 level/SW corner for the Bucs game online.

[Chocolate Milk]

Total

 

2 for Seahawks

3 for Bills

2 for Bucs

 

I'll also be going to the 49ers game and the Giants game in NY!

 

Woo hoo!

For those interested, I suck at life. Getting the big 0-fer.

[Jon]

Looks like they're all sold out except for singles.

 

The automated line worked really well. There was no wait in reserving tickets like there was online. The only downside is that checkout took like 5 minutes.

Thanks for the phone number assitance, Jon. It really helped out. I called in about 3 minutes until noon and got it right away, like you said, the processing took awhile but at least it worked.

 

I got 2 games

 

Section 222 vs. Buffalo

Section 219 vs. Miami

At least you live in Chicago. I have never been to a Bears game, haven't been to Wrigley since 2004 and haven't been to a Bulls home game since 1996.

[Chocolate Milk]

Productive afternoon. Time to get drunk.

[Jon]

Sorry to hear that, Garwilly.

 

I'll be in 149 for the Bills game. The NW corner endzone is the Bears' tunnel, no?

[Butterscup1679666578]

Congrats to you guys who got tickets. I've only been to the new Soldier Field once, when we got destroyed by the Colts a few years back. Stupid college in Missouri restricts me from going.

By the way, one of the security words that came up for me on ticketmaster.com was "shoop."

 

Oh, and then there's this:

AP[/url]"]Chicago Bears tight end John Gilmore was arrested Saturday and charged with possession of marijuana after allegedly refusing to leave a bar and getting into a "small tussle" with police.

John Gilmore? How will we ever recover?

[Banedon]

I wonder how this will affectthe Briggs situation.

[wiumike]

Anyone go to a pre-season game at soldier field? I was looking to take my wife to a game and was wondering when would be a good time to buy tickets? I was looking to go the 8/25 game against the cardinals.

 

I would assume ebay will be flooded with tickets leading up to the game, anyone know for sure? Right now I can buy a pair for 80-100, think they will get much lower than that if I wait?
