honestly, if you wanna lock in a game, i’d advise you to use stub hub… there’s like a $10-15 upcharge but i think it’ll be well worth the investment… i have a feeling tickets will go EXTREMELY fast this year. btw, i will be at that game… good choice!

go to a game in Chicago every year. They literally sellout the entire season in under five minutes. We will have 4 computers and 6 phones going and won’t get tickets. The thing is in past years we have gotten offers for 2 (don’t know if that’s all they sell but that’s what we’ve been offered twice) club seats. They cost about $250 which is probably as much as you’ll spend for some nosebleeds on stubhub. We bought them one year and traded for 3 (there are 3 of us that go) nosebleeds. Your safest bet is stubhub, and prices don’t go up after the tickets go on sale but there is a large portion of tickets on stubhub that get sold right after people realize they didn’t get them from ticketmaster. If you find a good deal on stuhub take it. We have actually looked into the Steelers game this year and it looks like the most expensive ticket of the year. We are gonna do the Cardinals if we don’t get them through ticketmaster. That being said, if your in town, I would get the tickets asap, because I doubt there is gonna be anybody with tickets who doesn’t go to that game. Just my 2 cents, good luck and have fun.

When we go we stay at the travelodge on e. harrison. It is a decent place, nothing fancy but its $150 a night and is literally half a block of Michigan ave so its cheap and a great location. Either way, there is a bar we frequent every year called the South Loop Club. Great sports bar, yeah mostly Bears fans but they have the sunday ticket and every game is on at least one tv so you get a good mix of fans. Its at the corner of e balboa and s state. If your on michigan ave and your walking south to soldier field, you just take a right (or east) on balboa and its two blocks down. Its about a 15 minute walk to soldier field from there. When we get night or afternoon games we always go before and always come back after to get highlights and food. Food is good not great, and fairly cheap for chicago. Anyways thats where we go, its convenient and well placed more than anything and I enjoy it enough to try to pimp it to you so if you don’t do the tailgate scene, I highly recommend checking it out.
