    What were 10c seats like in 2016 based on seniority?
    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.

    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.

    thinkin about it. have seen them there 3 times so seems redundant to me, but these shows are closest to home. may have to do it.

    wow!!!
    Hey gruff! I specifically remember GA being packed! And I specifically remember member comments about how tight it was.

    Not trying to deter anyone, I can't imagine the experience! Just sayin!

    I am just too short for GA and I can only dream of being on the rail sooooo.....I learned my lesson in Pitts and Lex I'm too short for GA. I WILL however put in for GA if it's in MI.

    good info, thank you.  My wife and I will probably head in about 30 minutes before the band goes on so I'm guessing we'll be somewhere way in the back (if I am lucky enough to win GA).
    I'll ride the wave where it takes me......

    But gruff sounds like GA will be more members and their own company. Not random public people soooo that's huge!

    Been to all 3 Wrigleys. I'm 130xxx and have as always been on field with reserved and seats good enough that I thought were better /easier than dealing with GA (I'm 40 and would prefer to get a beer without suffering crippling anxiety of never getting back to my spot).
