i do have 2 lower reserved to sell for 8/10. Paid $272 face. Looking for $250. (SOLD)

A few things to share after going last night:

1) merch lines are insane long. We waited until “first break” then went over to get in line. Was in GA area so less people but only took 20 mins. Nothing was sold out except 1 sticker type. Sure beat a 3 hour wait in line. 

2) purse chaos getting in. My wife’s purse is tiny but it was a no go for our first attempt through. They literally have 4x6 cards they measure with. We folded purse top to make it close, switched lines and got through. 

3) no water bottles in GA. They have a small army of people who will look for and take them away. 

Fun times

    Water bottles = projectiles apparently. Hopefully this isn’t a policy at Wrigley

    We could bring in an empty or upopened water bottle. Then when we finally got to the floor, they traded water bottle for empty beer cup. But there was no water filling stations. Was all very strange

    We had no problem with water bottles in GA.  We walked right in with a sealed bottle in hand.

    The GA merch line was awesome.  When we walked in there was no line, so we quickly got our stuff and sought out a spot.

    It was also amazing how they close the roof so we wouldn't die while waiting (then opened the roof before PJ hit the stage).

    We brought sealed water bottles in to the GA.  Within minutes, security started roaming through the crowd and taking away water bottles, giving plastic cups.
