This is NOT a sports related post and I want it on the OT because this is a tourist/travel related thread.

Going to a game on Friday September 4th and want to know from someone who has been to Wrigley where they like to sit. Don't want to do the upper deck and was thinking about the outfield bleachers. Don't want to spend 100 bucks a ticket (taking five family members with me) and the bleacher seats are $39 each. Also feel free to suggest other things to do while in Chicago. Thanks!

It looks fun on TV. I've never been to a major league game, only LSU games. Any other suggestions are appreciated.

Well shite, y'all made this easy! It says on their site it is general admission. Get there a little early to get good seats?

Just went this past weekend. Sat in 415. Second level on 3rd base side. Got them off stub hub for around $40.

If you're not going outfield, I would definitely get on the second deck.

The Bartman seat is a popular tourist destination.

Bleachers is the place to be but if that's not what you are looking for, I sat down right field line and I thought it was fine. Anywhere you sit is decent views, be careful of any obstructed view seating.

Sat in the bleachers for the first time last Friday. By far the most fun spot.

There's not much difference from one seat to the next

I don't want to be the first one to say it, but I've been 5 times and I'd suggest the outfield bleachers.

I was going to take a trip in September but now I'm waiting for the playoffs because I know my wife won't let me go back a month later

This is what everyone is saying. I am going to buy some outfield bleachers tickets soon. Thanks everyone!
