Here's the deal-yo on Cubbies tix:

Since no one really responded with much enthusiasm when I previously asked about the Cubbies game (totally understandable since everyone's primary reason for going to Chicago was the convention ), I didn't try too hard to get tix. The thing is every single ticket all year has been sold. The only way to get them is through brokers, scalpers or ebay.

I did get a few responses (identities withheld for fear of retribution ), so on a whim, I bought what I could - four bleacher tix for the Saturday game through a contact of mine (all four are accounted for).

So SC and whoever else wants to go to the game, I'll be on the lookout for cheap tix as well. Hopefully, with our researching skills, we can find some good deals.
