What is price range if u don't mind me asking. Seeing if I want to get divorced
I paid $3600 on TickPick.com. I got a seat for game 4. Its gonna be a hard copy of a ticket that I can get framed, which I wanted. Didn't want SRO because I have a feeling that may be a clusterf.
I almost bought a ticket from Stubhub that I thought was gonna be $3,300 but when I got to the checkout there was like $800 in fees.
I was VERY close to buying 1st row seats in Section 6 for $9800 for Game 5 (that basically the Bartman seats) - see if this link works :
https://www.tickpick.com/Checkout.aspx?type=buy&transID=814430305&eventID=2914705&invType=MBut I definitely wouldn't have been able to come home from Chicago if I had done that. Been putting off upgrades to patio for a year now telling wife money was too tight.
I honestly didn't plan on buying a ticket. My sister and bro-in-law live in Chicago and I had planned on just flying up and staying with them and me and bro-in-law were just gonna go hang out along Sheffield or Waveland. He's in lottery for tickets, but so are like 2 million other folks.
However, I started reading some talk online about them possibly closing down the streets around the ballpark to non-ticketholders just to allow people to get in to the game. My next thought was get to Murphys or Cubby Bear first thing in the morning and watch there, but after seeing the crowds for the NLCS game 6, I started to panic that those may even get full or they may reserve seating or something. I was looking at doing one of the rooftops which had tickets for $700 available on stubhub yesterday morning, but after checking again this morning and seeing those prices had gone up to $2k I figured I needed to bite the bullet and get a ticket or else I would end up being out of luck.
If cubs wins the first 3, game 4 tickets are gonna be very hard to come by and I won't be in Chicago until late Friday so I wasn't gonna have much time to mess around scrambling for tickets.
I know I'm idiot and its absurd to pay that kind of money for a ticket to a sporting event, but its once in a lifetime type thing, what the heck. Santa Claus just gonna be a little stingy to my kids this year, I guess.
