Cubs Ticket Lottery/Red Sox Tickets...

[cooprules]

I've been searching and I can't find an answer. Anyone remember the ticket email lottery the Cubs had last year? I know it was around this time I thought. Can't find any info if they're doing it again.

 

Also I'm looking to find when the Red Sox are going to be selling the Brewer series' tickets. I have other connections to fall back on but would like to try and get them myself if possible.

 

Thanks for any help.

For those who are interested, Red Sox tickets go on sale (online and phone) this Saturday the 26th at 10am Eastern.

 

Cubs tickets go on sale February 22nd at 10am Central from what I've heard.

Is that for the lottery, also? My brother won last year and was able to get us tickets to the April 25th? game, third row right at the homeplate end of the Cub's dugout. $55 bucks a piece. It was rainy, Sheets got hurt, the Brewers got smoked, but Rickie hit an absolute bomb and the experience was terrific. We're hoping to score some tix again.

The Cubs lottery was for the premium seats, and was later in the year IIRC.

are you serious about this saturday the 26th???

 

i saw that they are already selling many of their april/may/sept tickets, but the brewer series wasnt on the list. i just assumed they would go on sale sometime in mid-late feb. can you confirm this Jan 26th date???

 

thanks

No. February 22nd is just for Cubs single games. I "won" the lottery last year as well and was at the same game. Rickie's homer was definitely a rocket. Only thing that really made me smile that day. We were in the 1st row by the Brewer bullpen for like 40 some bucks a ticket. Best deal in the world. I'll check some saved emails from last year. I think it was after the 22nd that they had the lottery.

I will be as well. I have a whole weekend booked and have a ticket fallback but would like to handle it myself. If anyone has any tips on how to maximize the chances of getting through online, let me know. I know people have said they've had like 200 windows open at the same time. Do you just get in the virtual waiting room, open a new tab or window and do the same thing over and over? If I want tickets for 2 games will I have to get back in the "waiting room" or can I do both games at once?
