Great video! I made a similar video at Wrigley but in a little bit of a different style. I love how cinematic all your shots are!
Can't wait for next year! I am in awe of Wrigley Field
in the main grandstand, if youre looking for 200 levels i always recommend rows 1-6 to avoid beems in view and still covered from the sun and or rain. If youre doing bleachers, come early get a nice spot and hold your spot with a towel or bag.
If doing bleachers, how early must one show up to get a good spot?
@@jlruiz7634 it will depend on opponent and what day the game is on. I always say at least one hour before gates open be in line if you want front row. if you want a good spot probably 30 or so minutes for gate opens on a average game. good opponent or giveaway for sure 1-to 1.5 hours before. it gets packed quick
what about section 101 for a concert?
@@matthewmcneil216 that is a good spot
I am a *CANADIAN* who is a die-hard Cubs fan _(Ryne Sandberg favourite all time player)_ who went to Chicago and a Cubs game for the very first time - 20 June 2024 - against the NY Mets. Sat in section 110 (first row), along the third base line. Great seats, great sight lines. Sadly, the Cubs got trashed, 11-1 in the game. Was still a thrill to see the Cubs play live in such a great venue. I even took a tour of Wrigley Field _prior_ to the game with the tour guide “Kenny” leading the way. He was fantastic. Well worth the $30 US price tag. Learned a lot about the past and present history of Wrigley Field. After the game I went into the adjacent Cubs Store and spent a small fortune in there on t-shirts and other memorabilia. Then my wife and I ate at Swift and Sons Tavern right across the street from Wrigley Field. Great food, great service too. We stayed at the old Warwick Allerton Hotel on N. Michigan Avenue. We did the “Mob Tour” too the next day. Shout out to Nora’s Restaurant on N. St. Clair Street where we ate twice … great food!! ~ We will definitely go back and see the Cubs again at Wrigley. ~ 🇨🇦 P.S. - Uber is a great way to get around. Taxi drivers can be really pushy, hence why we preferred Uber. Thank you Chicago for a wonderful time!
the wrigley tours are really cool and a great value for a tour of one of few iconic ballparks left
Really well made video. I hope I get to visit this baseball heaven in the future.
Thanks for watching!
Could easily have enjoyed this more *without* the annoying (same) music being played over and over. 👎 Enjoyed the rest of the content though.
Yeah, sorry about that. I've tried varying it up a lot more on other videos. Thanks for watching though.
@@BlockingThePlate ~ All good buds. Nice to see someone who can take constructive criticism and not take it personally. Was never meant as a slight, just an opinion. 👍
The music is an annoying distraction
Yeah, the hard part about public domain/stock audio. I've tried to vary it up on later videos.
curious whats difference in atmosphere in regards to day/nite games at wrigley???
I think every Cubs fan will tell you that day games are the only way to go, and personally, I love a good day game. But be prepared, it's hot as hell in the bleachers. If it's a day game, I probably wouldn't sit out there again. I'm not made for that! Haha.
What’s the earliest you’re allowed to lineup for the bleacher seats
The music on this video is awful and so annoying. It stopped me from watching the whole thing!
Cubs fans are awful and annoying so the music is perfect.
@@Christoph-sd3zi LOL, facts
Less music more content
Pittsburgh has more bootleg stuff around theirs
They might for the Steelers, but they don't have a fraction of what Chicago has for the Cubs.
Thanks from the Philippines! The Blue "W" waves here! GO CUBS!!
Love your videos
Do you need vaccination or negative test
When I was there, neither was required, but I'm not sure if that's changed over the last month.
Big question when I visit Wrigleyville, when Ill be goin will be in sept, is it a little bit cheaper to buy cub merchandise outside from the ballpark 🏟 in actual Wrigleyville then from inside the ballpark ??? Like I want to buy an mlb on the field hat 🧢 would it be cheaper? Great video btw…
No, not really. There are a handful of shops adjacent to the park, but a lot of their stock is older/generic, or priced pretty close to the park. Best bet is the shirts for sale on the corners, or the actual team shop. Thanks for watching!
Thanks for this! Finally getting to Wrigley and I want to make the most of it! As a Fenway Faithful, I’m excited to see the second oldest park!
You didn’t mention the prices of concessions inside, I’m used to absolutely outrageous, wondering what they’re like?
I don't remember concession prices off hand, I'd assume they're high though. Haha. Thanks for watching!
Hey man great video. I have a question about the bleachers. Do food and drink vendors come down to you like other parts of the stadium or do you have to risk losing your seat to go get something? Planning on going to my first game this year and was just curious.
No, I don't remember any vendors in the bleachers. Just coordinate w/someone next to you, they'll hold your spot though. :)
Is the weather in mid April pretty iffy? Looking at bleacher seats
Definitely iffy! In terms of lining up, if it's anything like when I was there, you don't need to worry about lining up much earlier than when the gates open. I went in a bit after that and still had zero trouble snagging a spot. I'm there again this April too.
Nice video. I would recommend talking a bit about transportation to the game. Public transportation is the way to go to wrigley.
