I WON TICKETS TO THE CUBS PLAYOFF GAME!!!
A local department store held a drawing as a lure to get buyers in the store. My wife went and filled out a ticket with my name. Last night at bowling, I was paged for a phone call. It was my wife. She excitedly told me that my name was pulled. And, I won 2 box seat tickets for tonight's game. I will be 17 rows from the field, right behind Home Plate. Look for me on TV.
The seats are worth $750 each, on StubHub. Not bad, Huh?

Sell them and buy yourself a few bowling balls  Seriously though. If I had box tickets to one of the Sox games, no way I would sell them.

Dennis, Nice score on the Tickets. Jock you have no idea what cubs fans would pay for those tickets. Dennis make sure you take the L down there unless your going way early. Last time we went it took 2 hours just to drive down Addison.

Yeah, I probably will go early. Parking is about $25, beers $7.50, hotdog $4.50. I have a 40 mile 1-way drive.
These free tickets will still cost me $100.
Just checked StubHub. Tickets are now $850. Club box seats, 5 rows closer, are $2000.00.

cg, considering the Pirates don't have another game, $50 a pair is a good price.

Nice Dennis! Enjoy the game. There is nothing like playoff baseball in the crisp October night. Go Cubs..or White Sox..or both.
