I'm trying to help out a friend of mine who bought a couple of tickets to the bleachers. He's trying to find out exactly where in the bleachers he will be, but all it said when he bought them online is that they will be in seats 770-773. I tried looking on the seating chart, I think he will be in left field but not exactly sure. any one know for sure?

the bleachers had always been general admission - has that changed?

They number the bleacher tickets 1 through whatever number they have. 770 just means that it was the 770th bleacher ticket in their system. They need them numbered to identify the tickets.

 

It's irrelevant, though. Regular season bleacher tickets are all GA. The bleachers are broken down into sections, though (140s-150s, I believe) and there are seat numbers, but only for the playoffs.

I'll be in the bleachers Tuesday night as well, for the first time since i was a small child.

 

What is the standard arrival time for a mid-week night game? I plan on being there early of course to get a good seat.

 

Wondering if I would need to be there any earlier with Bonds being in town. But I find it hard to imagine it being packed at 5pm gate opening when many will probably still be at work?

Where you coming from? If you're coming up from Louisville for the game, I'd give yourself plenty of time b/c of normal Chicago traffic and I know Indy has some construction but that is on I-74 I believe.

 

If you're staying at nearby hotel, 90 minutes should be fine.

 

Bleachers will be sold out regardless, CF and RF might be more crowded early on compared to LF.

Flying up Tuesday morning actually. Will be in quite early, 10 AM. Heading downtown from there to the hotel.

 

Just wondered how early to get to the park since this is the first time I've really done the bleacher thing.
