Hey guys. I'm trying to find 2 tickets to the Cubs-Rockies game on Friday Aug. 2. Looks like only single seats remain. Anybody have extra tickets? What's the likelihood of finding tickets on the street before the game, without paying a premium? Thanks.

The price outside will drop precipitously as starting time approaches. It will be a buyer's market, with time on your side.

Thanks for the tip, Twin. Not sure if we'll go without a sure thing but maybe it is worth a shot.

From a displaced Cubs fan now out west, go to the park! Even without a sure thing ticket source, the atmosphere around the best park in the league is worth experiencing.
I still think you'll be able to score tickets from scalpers. (They're playing the Rockies after all.) But even if you don't get tickets, there are a number of great local watering holes where you can watch the game, soak up the scene and grab a cheap Old Style or two.
And the gay bars aren't that far away from Wrigley.

I'd love to go...we'll see what happens. If it's that easy to find tickets we might take a chance. Thanks guys
