in The Porch
I'm serious, that's my number. 
Where do you think I will be sitting at Wrigley, if I were to win 10club tix? 

Im guessing I will be in the right field bleachers, selling hot dogs. 
Take me piece by piece.....

    I signed up for 10C in 2018 before the tour was announced. My seats were in sec 412. I would say definitely in the 300s. Not a bad view and the sound is pretty good up there.

    If it works out similarly to the United Center shows last year, you’d get better seats at face value buying later, and not from the lottery.
    I got section 100 facing the stage, the day before the show, at face value.
    People had a hard time getting anything near face value back when trying to sell their 300 level seats.
    Keep in mind, capacity is much larger at Wrigley. Holds 41,000 vs 23,000. So will be even more difficult to unload unwanted seats.

    Yeah, I was just having fun when I started this thread. 
    Ive been a member for over 20 years, and I know how the ticket game is played. 

    Last year I bought side stage for the United Center for $45, the day of the show. 
    I have no intention of putting in for 10club seats this time around.

    Although I am not kidding about my 10club number.
    After letting it expire a few times, I sit at 750xxx

    Same here. Not doing the lottery this time.
    I was a member throughout the 90’s. Accidentally let it lapse once in the mid-2000’s, so now my membership number isn’t that great.
    I’m still happy to be a member for some of the merch purchasing, but has no use for seniority based ticket lotteries.

    ^ 10 Club will give you a one-time made a mistake chance if you email them.

    I'm curious, after seeing how United Center played out last year, with plenty of tickets available the week or the show, and so many people not being able to unload their bad seats, if much fewer people will enter the lottery this time.
    I know I'm not.
    I saw plenty of seats between $50-$100 the week of the Chicago shows last year.

    Unfortunately, not if the mistake was 15-20 years ago. I emailed then and asked at that time about being able to keep my original number, but no dice.

    Same here. Wasn’t allowed to keep my original membership number after my one time mistake of it lapsing. Which is fine.

    There are some huge misconceptions going around about demand for United Center shows last year was not that great, and somehow that will affect demand for Wrigley this summer…FALSE

    United Center pretty much sounds like absolute fucking garbage from up top where as at Wrigley if you’re not on the field the upper deck sounds way better than being stuffed back in the lower level mostly under the roof.

    Really not trying to be a know it all here but demand for Pearl Jam tickets at United Center last year versus Wrigley this summer is 100% apples & oranges

    United Center was a Tues/Thurs after Labor Day I believe.  Wrigley 2 is Saturday of Labor Day weekend.  Very different in terms of the amount of people who can make it.  

    Also any concert could have last minute cheap tickets but there could be times when tickets cost more at the end.  You can’t compare a known outcome from last year’s day of show pricing to the unknown of this year.
