8/21 Phillies tics yet?

[cinder]

Just wanted to check again,,,does anyone have tics they would like to sell?

 

We need up to 6 (maybe only 5), and preferably not in the bleachers.

 

Thanks in advance for any replies!

You can get six good seats on Cubs.com right now. The best six come up in 102, but that's in the corner. If you select upper deck box, you can get six in the 4th row of 429. They're nice seats.

I checked cubs.com this morn....these must have just been released!

 

I also saw seats in 409, ROW 1. Would these be just as good?

 

They are on the Cubbie's side and in the shade, right?!?

Pretty much. 409 is a bit further down the line, but they are on the Cub's side. The whole upper deck would be in the shade, though, especially since it's a night game and the sun would be pretty far down behind the third base side. In the rare case that it rains, though, it's worth noting that the first 1.5 rows of the upper deck box section are not covered by the overhang.

 

I've mostly been on the first base side when in the upper deck box sections. I'd personally probably pick 429 over 409, but not if you can still get first row seats. It's nice being in the front row of the upper deck box, regardless of the risk of rain.

You have REALLLYYY been a BIG HELP!

 

Yipppeeeee.....we are gonna see the Cubbies play...we are gonna see the Cubbies play.....wooooohhhoooooo!!!!!!!!!!

Which seats did you end up getting?

[cinder]

they were both available when I started the process (I'm entering my credit card stuff now)...

 

Do you think I should do the others??

No, I'd go with the first row of 409.

 

I know a lot of other people feel this way, as well, but there may not be a better spot to see all of Wrigley from than the UD boxes. You're close to the field but have a possibly the best view in the entire building.

The 409 tics are Row 1, seats 5-10

 

The 429 tics are Row 4, seats 1-5 (but you already knew that, right?)

Unless there's a big need to be on the aisle, you can't really beat row 1 up there.

I'm stickin with 409.

 

THANK YOU SO MUCH JON!!!!

Sure. It's a great spot for your first game. I'd still recommend getting there when the gates open and hanging out at the wall along the infield just to be down on field level and real close to the players, but you'll be pleasantly surprised with how good those seats are. It's just too bad they jacked up the prices in those sections last year.

[cinder]

I was wondering why seats so high were such a premium price...guess they figured out that the view was real good.

 

I'm just soooo pumped. I've been searching for these tics for almost a month. I am very grateful for your reply!! If you are at the game,,,stop by and I'll buy you a beer (or coke if you don't drink)!

[Jon]

Thanks for the offer, but I doubt I'll be back to Wrigley the rest of the year. Enjoy the game, though.
