Cub Tickets On Sale Today
To buy or not to buy…
Seriously, I can’t decided. It’s a blast, but damn, you’re talking $30-$50 per seat depending on the game, plus hot-dog and beer money, transportation, dinner. So $200 for two people, increasing exponentially if I take the little ones.
Oh but it’s so fun!
…and what if? What if this was THE YEAR and I didn’t see a game… yea, I know, if I were gambling, I wouldn’t take the bet, but look at all the people who pay the poor-tax (I mean lottery)… surely the chances of the Cubs winning it all is better than winning the lottery! Am I becoming delusional- trying to talk myself into this?
Well, maybe I’ll buy a couple tickets. Bleachers. Against the Cardinals. I wonder if my ticket cheat still works.
Update: once you enter the ‘virtual waiting room’, just copy and paste the link into a new tab. Voila, you have now doubled your chances of getting in.
Update 2: Two bleacher tickets against the Cardinals in the middle of August when the Cubs usually start to wilt under the sun. $84 + $15.18 in fees.
I think my purchases will stop there.

This year hasn’t even started and we’re already looking forward to next year. I can’t blame my father for this horrible addition; he is a Cardinal fan.
…now my deceased grandfather… he was true blue… and inevitably would always start shouting at the little tv screen in his kitchen before turning it off by the 5th inning. As a kid I didn’t understand why he didn’t wait to see if we could rally in the 9th to pull off a win. What I didn’t know at the time is that he’d been through a lifetime of this already. I guess he’d seen enough blown leads and too few comebacks to even give it a chance anymore.
