Thank you.

What time do I need to get in the GA line to have at a somewhat close standing position?

afaik, there is only one ga pit and it is supposed to be all 10c (and, i assume, friends/family/high rollers/the band's kids' teachers/the cubs/bill murray).

I fully anticipate the GA section to be filled with a bunch of crazies from the Pit. I want to be close-ish but it probably won't be worth the effort.

Anyone know of good places in the area to grab some drinks beforehand?

in that case, assuming Chicago will have a higher turnout, then I'd try to get in fairly early, maybe between 6-7pm

Unfortunately, Wrigleyville has turned into something of a corporate amusement park in the last several years. You're probably better off going a little further if you want somewhere good.

That being said, Yak-zies is right there and has great wings.

I haven't been to the area since 2010. That sucks to hear.

go to Corridor on Southport. Some of the best hazy IPA/NEIPA's you'll ever have. and the food is good too.

it can get crowded though, so go early. we'll be there around 4.
