Well like I said I wouldn’t suggest it for this, it’s something fun to do just once if you ever have enough people.

OK, I've updated the spreadsheet. Please add your username and number of tickets on the bottom. Let's see if we can get a firm count by Thursday, and I will call group sales and see what we can get.

Also bumping :siren:THIS SPREADSHEET:siren: because there are a bunch of people who've posted in the thread or on the earlier version of :siren:THIS SPREADSHEET:siren: that they were interested and/or available on the 31st.

So what I'm saying is if you haven't already, please write down how many tickets you need on :siren:THIS SPREADSHEET:siren: sometime in the next 48 hours with how many tickets you need for the 8/31 game at 7:05pm if you wanna go!

I forgot to add my tickets but did now, put 2-4 for SO and brother who is goon/their SO. Not opposed to purchasing tickets outside the group depending on group ticket rates and could also find other goons I know in Chicago who would go.

I think we need an exact number so Mangles knows exactly how many to buy. Also "2-4" messed up the spreadsheet because now it says we need 43,516 tickets. :psyduck:

I would guess the price difference between 18 and 20 would be $28, since they show their group rates as $14 apiece for infield box, but I don't know if those also come with pizza and hats like the family deal does.

I will ask about both 18 and 20 and see if there's any appreciable difference.

Ok, i called. Group rate has minimum 20 tickets. At 20, we get a hat and a group welcome on the scoreboard if we want. The rates are:

$8 bleachers
$14 infield box
$22 behind home plate

Let's confirm we're at 20 tickets, figure out our tier, ans decide if we want to put something on the scoreboard.

Infield or behind home plate, please. I’m good either way.

I’m trying to think of something we can all get behind for the scoreboard; maybe “Never bunt, hit dingers”?

I don't knw how much latitude we get for the scoreboard, I think it's just welcoming the name of a group like Welcome Lada Dealers of Greater West Cook County.

It's amazing what they can do with computers these days.

I would lean infield over behind the plate, but I don't really care either way.

My bad name suggestion is the Zambrano Zamboni Drivers of Chicago

Edit: Also, if we're definitely at 18 tickets, we might as well get 20. It looks like regular ticket prices are $25 for behind home and $16 for infield, so getting 20 tickets at the lower price is cheaper than getting 18 tickets at the regular price.

We would ALL get hats? Or is it just one really big hat that serves as a parasol for the game and then we give it back

Anyone else have any thoughts on this? Otherwise I will go for 20 tickets in the infield box. I will place the order on

If you're on the spreadsheet by then, consider a ticket purchased.

Still looking for a dumb group name for us as well.

Ok, i bought 20 tickets on the infield box. We're behind home plate in two rows of ten and get hats. We can still customize our group greeting. I was thinking of going with the Greater Chicagoland Baseball Oafs.

That group name works for me. Should we pay you in cash when we get there or do you have a PayPal/Venmo?
