    Really intrigued by this if Third Man is releasing it. Too bad I'm out of town for that game.

    Hopefully the vinyl doesn't get ruined during the game.  Day game at Wrigley in July will be pretty damn hot.

    Not sure if it's worth the ~$60 gamble, but this is what I've heard:

    Since you need to purchase from select sections, and not applicable to existing ticket sales, it seems like they can control the quantity and delivery. But yeah, it'd suck to buy a ticket to the game, not attend, and come away empty-handed.

    i Wonder if season ticket holders can get in on it.

    The Cubs make us buy separate tickets for these special events.

    Cubs tickets got reeeeeally expensive these last couple years.  The vinyl packages are only $5 more than regular ticket prices.

    Would have been smarter to do this on the game before PJ plays wrigley

    Hopefully the gate attendees won’t have anything to do with this. Ever go on Bobblehead day? It’s a mess.

    Awesome idea. Bad decision to have this when Pearl Jam is touring Europe.

    Disclaimer: I am a Chicagoan who will be on tour in Europe and thus can't get one. :(

    No, don't show up when the game is about to start and you should be OK. Teams usually hold some back for VIP's and STH's.   Good luck everyone!

    This is not an all fan giveaway. You specifically have to purchase this vinyl + ticket package from that specified link. This is similar to when Mike does his annual CCFA night with the Mariners.

    A couple years ago, the Cubs did an Oktoberfest boot drinking glass giveaway.  It was a pretty similar operation as this, you had to buy the glass ticket package. Not everyone in the stadium got one.  Living in Maryland, I obviously couldn't make it to the game, so I had my buddy who lived a block down from Wrigley on Sheffield pick it up for me (I mailed the ticket to him).  I do recall there was a specific locaiton (I think near the Bleacher gate) and window of time to pick up the glass (like an hour before the game up until the 5th inning or something).  Don't fret, it should be a well-organized operation.
