Anyone actually going to the World Series?
 
Title says it all...

A World Series for the ages! I hope some fellow board members are able to see history in person!

Go Cubs Go!

I surprised my dad with Game 3 tickets! He grew up in Chicago and was a huuuuuge Banks fan

No but I'll be rooting for Stetson alumni, Corey Kluber!

Sean 10-25-2016 05:41 PM

I'm flying to Chicago, but I'll be in the crowd outside the park. I can't afford tickets. :(

Very cool, Brent!


I saw they had standing room only for $2,700.....am I even guarantee a spot?

I thought about flying to Chicago and being outside as well.

I know for Kauffman their standing room was on a first come first serve basis.

I went last night. I took the biggest Cubs fan I know with me.

Supposed to go as a worker in a booth Tuesday and have the option of Weds.

They were saying on the radio that in Chicago the close bars are charging $500 to get in for the game. $500 to go to a bar!!!

Going to all three WS games at Wrigley, left center bleachers. I attended 19 games this year, with an additional two playoff games.

Going Saturday with my dad who was a beer vendor at Wrigley from 1952 to 1962.

I'm going Sunday night. can;t wait

I was in Wrigleyville on Friday and Saturday night. Tickets were too expensive, but the atmosphere was terrific!

I drove from Indiana to Cleveland for game 1. Not the greatest game for me as I'm a cubs fan but was a great experience nonetheless.

Most of the bars were charging a $100 cover per person, with a 2 drink minimum and a guarantee that you will not get a seat.

I thought that getting there a couple hours early would get me a seat, but one of the regulars told me to"show up by noon" to get a seat.

I rolled down to game 7 and shot a great video at the end of the Cubs fans singing Go Cubs Go...

I had access to tickets for any games at Wrigley, sadly, I won't be using them. A Yankees/ Cubs World Series would have been pretty cool.

Griffins 10-21-2017 10:15 AM

I"ve got tickets for game 1, waited too long for this.

ajjohnsonsoxfan 10-21-2017 05:17 PM

Just read that someone bought 4 tix two rows behind dugout (can't remember which one) for game 1 for $72,600!

That my friends is someone with money to burn....!

Anthony If I were you, I would be so tempted to sell and see what you could get for them. Have you thought about it?

Game 2
 
I attended Game 2 tnte:::
felt more like 1.5 or 2 games than 1...
some beautiful moments,some sloppy moments,and many moments in between::::
I paid about 1/100th of $72,600 and felt I got my moneys worth.
Is certain to be a great series,,,(GO BLUE!)

I'm going to be in section 311 for Game 6. My ticket was a gift from my wife. Earlier this year I sent her to meet John Legend and now she has returned the favor with Yasiel Puig.😉
