Well I'm not going to the NLCS

Got the dreaded email.

We're sorry, but you were not selected for an opportunity to purchase tickets to 2008 National League Championship Series games at Wrigley Field.

Tickets for any additional postseason games played at Wrigley Field will be available through StubHub.

Please click here for more information about postseason tickets for games at Wrigley Field.

Any lucky BCB bloggers out there?

I think it is a conspiracy with stub hub to sell only to resellers.

Not I

At least they’re sorry though.

Oops...

Me neither

but I’d be more than happy to be watching the Cubs in the NLCS from the comfort of home

Just got the

rejection email….guess I can only look forward to the chance at the big one…..

If nothing else some friends and I plan on going to stand outside Wrigley to enjoy the game. Anyone know if they have or will put up screens outside to watch for those of us who do not get to go to the game?

I don't even care that I lost.

I just want people to be able to use these tickets.

Keep an eye on Cubs.com after tomorrow

The Cubs released “surplus” NLDS tickets to the general public a week ago today, after people who won the drawing had an opportunity to get theirs. They were gone after just a few hours. Some pretty good seats, too – I got section 429, row 1 for NLDS game 5 (should it be necessary). They may do this again for the NLCS, but the question is when – they won’t announce it in advance.

If you get rejected for the drawing, all hope is not lost!
