    As someone in the biz, does an event at Wrigley with perhaps 15,000 out-of-towners really impact hotel demand in such a huge city?

    lot of tourists in chicago. not only is PJ playing, that Jason dude is playing the next night, so you have to figure, there will be a lot of his fans in for the weekend as well. sox fans will be in town. suburbanites will be down for special occasions. museums attract people. food. blah blah blah. lot of shit always going down in the summer.

    Phish is rumored to be playing 3 nights at the Charter One Pavilion, 19th-21st. Small venue, if I score a ticket for Saturday, I'l be leaving Sunday :mrgreen:.

    There will be tons of tickets available. You will have no probs at all getting tix if you want them just wait until closer to the show. Prices will drop on the secondary market. I don't have tix yet either, but it's not crossed mind that I won't be at the show. No worries.

    The Hyatt is not an option here, but just thought I'd post this link - today from 11 to 2 Central time Hotels.com is having a 3 hour sale (or so they say), so there's what? And hour left? And there are a lot of Chicago hotels available... be careful though. Some are very far away from the city centre. :)
    Me, I've settled with the Hyatt. I'll only have my eye on better rates advertised there.

    I stayed at the Hyatt last time PJ was in town, it was a a good time. HUGE bar. What are you seeing for prices per night? I Pricelined when I stayed there - got $75/night.

    The prices are sky high right now. $269+ a night. I booked as soon as the Wrigley announcement happened, and booked through the hotel since I wanted to be able to cancel, and it was $165 then, thank god. Pricelining is great, but you can't cancel, and the cheapest rates are last minute, so for a trip like this, I didn't want to go that way.

    I pricelined & got the Hyatt for $75 last time too :ugeek:. Not quite sure how many days I'm staying yet this time. My travel buddy can only stay the 1 night but that won't stop me from being there a few more nights, "depending" what's going on. Phish is "rumored" to be playing 3 nights that same weekend at the Charter One Pavilion, might try to find a ticket or 2 for Saturday night (pm me if your interested in trying for 2 tickets to increase our odds). I'll most likely be flying in Thursday "stand-by" :roll: , no sense taking my chances Friday & rushing around. I'm SURE I'll find something to do with some of the "crazies' on here :mrgreen: . So right now I'll have to wait to find out if I score tickets to the Phish show, then proceed to find a place to stay for a few nights through priceline.

    FUCK YEAH, SEE YOU ALL THERE :wave:

    I signed-up for the Hyatt Visa Card, and once I spend $1,000, I get 2 free nights at a Hyatt. Hopefully I can grab a room in Chicago.
