    even if your seats are in a bar at the next corner,its just epic...

    You speak the truth. I think this will be one for the ages. I got lucky, but I would be just as happy if I were squeezed in the upper deck between a roof column and smelly old fat guy.

    Wait. I am a smelly old fat guy... nevermind.

    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


    Based on Stubhub, it looks like Sections B & H may be 10C seats too.

    Oh well, I got tickets and I'm happy to just be there! :D
    Yeah, but we're talking about people who 10C doesn't specifically try and screw over when it comes to seating selection. Have fun in the obstructed view seat next to the fat guy. :P :mrgreen:

    I am hoping to be near 10C members. That would make it all the better. That's all I want. I'm there!

    "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?

    Wrigley is pretty big, holds 36,000 w/o Bleachers, but now you have people in the grass. That's more than Alpine Valley holds, Almost double the capacity of the United Center in Chicago. As long as my seats are not in the 200's, I hear the sound there is a terrible ricochet of noise

    I'm number 455xxx. To say I won't be sniffing the field is a large understatement at best. :lol:

    Any seat in the house is going to be perfect for this show though. I'm more than happy and pleased to have just won the tickets.

    Pearl Jam. Chicago. Wrigley Field. Mid-summer. Historical stadium. Big time show. Gonna be a fucking epic show and an absolute blast people!

    Not expecting to hear anything back I sent Tenclub an email asking what sections the 10c seats were in. Their reply: "Fan club seats are located all over the venue, too many sections to list we are afraid - 10c".

    :lol: What, is it, like, infinite sections? They could make a list in 5 minutes. :roll: In fact, a list would already exist.

    They don't want to ruin the surprise, I guess. They like seeing all the really happy & sort of dissapointed faces walking away from the 10C ticket line. :)

    I've always wondered why the don't/cant' publish (or at least just describe) the seat locations available to the fan club for every show. I don't understand why they won't. I'm sure there's a reason, but it escapes my logic based on my limited knowledge.

    Pretty simple why they don't. The abundance of scalpers in the fan club for one. They are also still working through it. They do this by hand so it is a lengthy process.
    If u want an idea, just go on Stub Hubs site. There are no available tix in the best sections on the field. Pretty good indication those are 10c.

    Yeah, it's not that they won't tell us - of course there is a reason (although I don't see how that info would help people with scalping 10C tix). They just don't have to lie when someone asks. They can just say that they don't want to release that info, and maybe admit exactly why.

    It helps because they would know their section. A lot of people are upset they don't know field or lower bowl. Tough to tell until you start stuffing envelopes to see where the cut off is. You never know if you are floor or wings if you are in that number range.
    It's part of the fun anyway, plus they clearly state everywhere that you won't know ticket locations until pick up time.

    They might be prohibited from doing so. Id guess that live nation or whomever would like to try and keep that information confidential.

    Just more masturbatory speculation. But based on what is available in the secondary market, it sure looks like he best seats are all 10C.

    They wouldn't know their section. I think the person was just wondering which sections all 10C tix were in, not where their own tickets were. We still wouldn't find that out until we pick them up at will call.

    There have been questions to specific sections on here. Point being, there is no benefit to sharing that info.

    No, there would be harm in 10C sharing that info. But I was just talking about them letting people know which sections include 10C tix. I don't see the harm in that, so unless they just don't know yet, not sure why they can't say. But if they have a reason, fine. Just don't say it's too long a list for them to be able to create. It just sounds stupid. They should just tell us why they don't want to tell us.... 10C does have a bit of a problem with telling us stuff when there seems no reason not to. This is just another thing.
