You could take a chance and take the two Diamondback games, two Giants games, a Brewers game and then you’re only stuck with one complete loser.

The Giants and Diamondbacks could be good this year, the Brewers are always interesting.

The point about the games being worthless in September is true, though. The Cubs will probably be well out of it by then and you can get tickets for next to nothing.

I fell for that last year…not this year. Jerks.

@Krish - It's not so much the location of the seats. Good seats are usually pretty readily available. It's the game selection. Of the 13 games I had last year, I'd say 8 or 9 of them were played in either uncomfortably cold weather or against terrible opponents. Sometimes, both.

I actually bought the package and to my shock I snagged all 200 level infield terrace reserved, even for the Sox and Cardinals game I selected. Are there just not enough people buying this thing?

And yet if I lived in Chicago I’d still probably buy the package… and go to those shitty games. Oh the life of a Cubs fan.

“There�s an awful lot of April and May up there.”

Agree with 424 here. Be thankful, they are selling you tickets for games when the team will still have hope and against clubs they might actually be able to beat. The roster will probably be healthy, the player lines will still be inflated and there wouldn’t have been enough time for us to fall too far out of first.

Chicago games after the break verses good teams? Why bother suffering through the disappointment…

You should buy a 9-game package for Skip. I’m sure he’d be willing to at least go halvsies with you.

Wait, you don’t want to take a day off of work to see them play the Washington Nationals? That game’s gonna be a sell out and now you will wait for hours in the virtual waiting room just for the hope of getting one.
