    I have never been to a stadium show.  10c number is 310xxx.  Not sure what to go for.  

    I would certainly attend both shows.

    Anyone got some good intel on lodging?  I booked a room at a Marriott.  Looks nice!  But itll set me back a grand.

    In 2016 I was drawn in the lottery for both nights at Wrigley and I had 1st and 2nd row of the second level. Fantastic view actually. I suspect I'll probably be in the back of the lower bowl this time if I'm drawn. I'm number 524, XXX so I suspect you'd probably be on the field if you went for reserved and they set up the seats the same way as 2 years ago.

    And I'm definitely in for both nights this year. Love Chicago and my Cubbies.

    Why a grand?

    And why the fuck can't get back to back shows to help my wallet??????????????

    The announcement advises dates are subject to change. I got screwed when those TOR dates changed. I have a sneaky suspicion I'll take a dry ride with this set up too.

    I don't know which I'll pick yet. Would hate to drive out there for only one show but I did the last time - it's not the end of the world. Maybe I'll go night 1 this time! Sounds good!
    Oh please let it rain today.

    I’m in! Staying with some peeps I met at the Moline show, within walking distance of Wrigley. Was originally dead set on Seattle but those travel prices are beyond insane.

    Seemed like any # over very low 200K were in the stands. 10C #s less than that, excluding those in GA, were in seats on the field.

    Agreed jj.

    It was pretty big in 2016. Basically as wide as the entire stage setup unless I'm misremembering.

    Not a great photo. But GA was wider than the stage and packed. The sea of people here also includes lawn.
