I just changed my priority to Wrigley 1 Res,Wrigley 2 Res from GA. Just want to make sure I get tickets, would love to be in GA but not enough to jeopardize me getting in the building. Waited too long to see them live.
I am stressing over this, should I go back to both GA

Will Boom be picking the ping pong balls for the lottery this time or do you think another band member will be doing it this tour?

If I were in your shoes I would do N2 GA, N1 Reserved, N2 Reserved as my choices. Check the odds again tomorrow morning to see if you need to adjust.

If you want a shot at two GA's then put night 1 GA first and night 2 second then reserved. There is a small chance that you end up with only one ticket this way (your reserved second night as a 4th) but you would be really unlucky if that happened. You would be in the running for all 3 draws before that though. If you can't live with gambling for 2 GA and the chance of one ticket flip it to reserved and sleep easy.
One thing I haven't seen discussed but I may have missed:
Show priority applies only to whether you get tickets, not at all to seat assignment, right? So a super senior member that has Fenway 2 as last priority and gets tickets will get just as good of seats as if they had listed it as 1st priority?

Thoughts?
I have Wrigley 2 GA Wrigley 1 res Wrigley 2 res Wrigley 1 GA
I’m pretty certain I won’t get GA with pick 2, and don’t want to risk RES not getting to 3rd. So to me putting GA at 2 not worth risking no tickets for night 1. Ideally I’d love pit both nights but I’m being conservative with odds... I hope you get both though!!!

I did what you suggested, let’s see where it goes.
Details. Goal=Both Wrigley shows, reserved. Wife and I. My # 474xxx. Hers 646xxx. She is as much a fan as I. Currently only entered my account in lottery. 1st priority. Wrigley 1 res. @77% 2nd priority. Wrigley 2 res. @99%.
So... Do I chance eating some tickets to insure we get both by entering her acct in lottery... or is Wrigley 1 a lock as 1st?
PS- I did enter ticket Master deal too.

I think a lot of folks' 1st priority for Wrigley 1 will be GA, so having at your 1st as reserved looks to be a pretty safe bet.
In 2016, did anyone get Wrigley GA N1 or N2 with their second pick? The percentages shown, believe take into account priority. Priority 2 doesn't have a chance unless all of Priority 1 gets tickets,.

Given that night 1 has dropped to 50%, I'm pretty temped to get her to just put in for GA, and put reserved night 1 as my 3rd choice. Still that 50% for night one includes people that didn't pick night 1 as their first choice, so she has to have better than 50/50 odds of geting GA tickets, on the other hand if she misses on GA, then I'll have wished I'd gotten the reserved's under my membership. Create's that chance of both us getting a night 1 pair.
I suppose I could flip it around. Just have her go for Night 2 GA, then I go GA 1, Reserved 2, Reserved 1? Given reserved's at 99%, it doesn't really matter where those options end up. Decreases the odd's of duplicate tickets.
Interesting dilemma's in the new system. Makes it easier (Due to more tickets) for single membership people, does a complete flip for two membership households (which I realize is the point) if you're trying to get into GA.
