Lower/Field Tickets - Wrigley - Speculation

It certainly appears from stubhub that the majority of the good field seats at Wrigley (not GA) are not in the hands of the general public. Seems to imply that most of these will be fan club seats. I was lucky enough to score field/lower seats with the lottery.

Since we won't know the exact location of the lower/field seats until the day of the show, I would love to hear others' opinions on the likely locations for senior fan club members, new members, etc... Could be a wide spread from the first few rows in the middle behind GA to chair seats way behind home plate, and everything around and in between.

Obviously a pointless exercise, could be a fun guessing game. What do you think?

If you have lower/field seats, take a guess, where do you think you'll end up based on your seniority?

    Pretty sure I will be in the lower bowl. My current member number starts with a 4.

    For me, I am hoping for one of the sections right behind GA with my 134xxx #, but I'm guessing I will be more towards the middle or back of the field seats. They can't all be fan club on the field, can they?

    I fully expect to have a seat that would be freaking awesome for a ballgame but probably so-so for a concert.

    Exactly.

    10club #275xxx might get you 1st row behind the dugout.
    WOOO HOOOO!!!!!

    Which is about a footballs field length, away from the stage.
    :P :P :P

    It will still be fun!

    "We reserve the best seats in the house for fan club tickets"

    My guess is the lower bowl will be below the 100's. Wrigley is not that big and from pictures I've seen it looks like the stage will be about mid center field which is not that far from the seats.

    But what the hell do I know. Has anyone seen a concert at Wrigley form the lower bowl? How was the view?

    I fear my number will have me in the back of the field

    But I gave up trying to guess my seats many years ago

    I am 44xxxx and I am 100% certain that would put me in the lower bowl - not on the field. And quite frankly, I would rather be in the bowl, raised up a little bit. I have been to a show in a baseball stadium before and there are not really any terrible seats. Bottom line is for this show - I will be happy anywhere.

    This is tough because it depends on how many fan club tickets were sold. Just looking at stubhub, then one would think that the majority of the field will be fan club, its harder to tell how much of lower bowl will be included. I am 31x,xxx and my fan club tickets in chicago at the United Center for "normal" concerts have gotten me mid floor, mid side, and all the way behind the floor in the seats (However, still lucky b/c some fan club members were in the 300's and not happy about it).

    It also depends on the random #s of the people who actually won the tickets. If randomly a lot of 4xx,xxx numbers won, then people will be moved up. However, statistically speaking, there is most likely a pretty even spread of #s that wont affect your positioning too much.

    I would guess that the spread is like 60% field seats and 40% lower bowl seats. And I would guess the lower level seats are primarily lower sections between dugouts (11-33) and 100 level above dugouts on sides. Guess of course.

    Then, if the spread is even within the field seats in terms of fan club allocation, you would only have a shot at N,P, or Q if you're in the top 15% or so seniority.

    My useless guesswork -
    (within lower/field seats)
    Top 15% seniority - N,P,Q
    15%-45% seniority - S,R,M,L,X,W
    45% - 60% seniority - U,V,Y, BB,CC
    Bottom 40% seniority - lower level, not on field
