    News flash, the Cubs season is technically not over, they still have to play some home games. I'm not going, but I thought I would share my tickets with any OTer who wants to go hang out at Wrigley.

    The games are against the Pirates on the 29th, 30th and 1st. I have four tickets to each game. They are all 7 PM night games.

    Rules / requests :

    Actually go to the game if you ask for the tickets. The whole point of this is that these are for OTer's. Don't take them if you're just trying to turn around and scalp them for 10 bucks . Obviously honor system here.

    I am sending these standard mail, 44 cents. If you want fancy guaranteed shipping, I'll send it UPS ground after you transfer the cost to me on stars. You will have to PM me an address. Alternately, if you are in the West Chicago area partying with this guy<A target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="http://cbs2chicago.com/local/robert.maday.captured.2.1192983.html" >

    http://cbs2chicago.com/local/robert.maday.captured.2.1192983.html</A>

    or up in the Bartlett IL area of the world, I can probably meet you for a beer and give you the tickets.

    You can have 2 or 4 tickets to one game only.

    You can't be on Chaz' scam list.

    PS thanks to Blonde for the open invite to the tourney a couple of nights ago, it was fun.

    Diggity, Baculuk, and acp.... enjoy the games and post some pics next week.

    Cue Yankee fans complaining about $10 beers. $6.50 is a bargain these days.

    No doubt...as a Cards fan, I'd love to see $6.50 beers.

    I read somewhere that Busch has the highest concession prices in the league??

    Very cool of you jimmy...good stuff.

    I should say, these are section 209 row 17. www.seatdata.com is a pretty accurate depiction of the view.

    I was one of the last people to get season tickets in 2004 before they started the waiting list (up to about 30,000 people waiting now I believe). IT was either there or way down the left field line in the upper deck.

    Nobody ever gives them up.

    I'll definitely take them! My bday is 10/1, so that would be the optimal game.

    Edit: F diggity, 9/30 would be good too unless diggity would trade considering it's my bday

    I'm guessing your super creepy sniper pics won't be quite as compelling on a September night as they were in July !

    ACP , Diggity claimed 10/1. You want 9/30? After the game you can hang out in Wrigleyville till midnight.

    CMC 9/29 is all that's left. I'll give you right of first refusal. Let me know if you can make it.
