Yeah, that would be sweet. I'm going to all four shows so that would save me a ton of hassle.

I would LOVE to have pre-ordering with a ticket!! It's been a good time hanging with people in line, but it can be a LOOOONG time and sometimes fruitless. :(
Going to be tricky . . . a lot of cash to be made on multiple poster for each show. I am totally happy with one, but can fault them for multi's for each night of the stadium shows. Key to this is beggers cant be choosers (not our strong suit). Meaning if they did a pre-sale, it would be site unseen and most likely a "mystery poster" from the night of show you are buying. I am sure that doesn't sit well with some, but when they did the pre-sale in years past, all the pssing and moaning left a bad taste in their mouth and they probably think it is not worth the hassle. Let's prove them wrong.
In Wrigley 3 years ago, I remember they had a hotel package deal where you could get the hotel, and a day early access to buy merch. I wonder if they would do that again? I live in Chicago suburbs and I might jump at something like that if they did it. Get all the merch you want at cost, not have to wait in crazy lines...and spend a few nights at a downtown hotel. That would beat the PITA that commuting back to the burbs from Wrigley is late at night. Sounds like fun.
Did anyone do that and can they relate how that all went?

This was discussed by derbydave on page 5 of this thread.
Yes I did!!! The 10 Shop was set up in the basement of The W Hotel... there was still a long line, but it was very organized and moved pretty fast!! I picked up a couple of stickers, the Cracker Jack poster, didn't really care for any of the other posters... one of the gray T-shirts with the sticker logo on the front, and bought my limit of 2 packs of the Wrigley trading cards. They were already sold out of the blue T-shirt (in my size) and the PJ Flag by the time we got thru the line!!

Yea, I dont know if the line moved fast, but at least we were not in the hot sun.

TRUE... maybe I should've said at a normal PJ merch pace!!

I was first in line at that event (2013 W hotel), somehow. . . the only other positive merch line experience I've had is Baltimore 2013 - opened early and the crew was on top of things - just walked up and got what I wanted prior to the scheduled time.
Signing! I waited over 5 hours at last Wrigley event just to get what was then available. Spent even more on eBay getting items I missed. Unreal on all accounts. Hoping for adequate inventory to support the fandom. Take a bite out of flippers!
How far in advance did they announce the package at the W Hotel in 2013? I already have a hotel booked, but would gladly cancel if they are planning to do something like that again and I'm able to secure a reservation.
It certainly doesn't seem like a comparable package to the 2013 set up will be offered this year. If that were the case then it seems that it would already be available for purchase.

agreed. Just a thought of a 10C member exclusive for Wrigley. Pre-Merch Fundraiser. $20/ticket (order via the website well in advance so they know how many to expect; 2 tix per member, ID required, wrist bands). 10C rents a hotel banquet room, Sets up merch pre-sale for a specifc time, donate proceeds of the presale fee, minus expenses for set up to local charity or vitalogy foundation. Do it Thursday night or Friday before Wrigley 1. Gets the merch in the hands of their people. Gives a nice chunk of change to a local charity. May calm some of the merch madness . . . Thinking out loud.
