NLCS Tickets (Playoff VWR Part 2)

I didn't see an NLCS ticket FanPost yet (Al, please delete this if there is one/several that I just missed).  I actually got selected for both the White Sox ALCS & Cubs NLCS today.  While things aren't looking good for the South Siders and...well...we know how they are looking for the Cubbies, I haven't completely given up hope yet.  ...or at least not to the tune of the NLCS service fees :)

It took me ~20 minutes in the virtual waiting room, but I was still able to get standing room for either Games 1 or 2 and seats for Games 6 & 7.  I just went for standing room on Game 2.   Ironically, I can't go myself, but a friend got me into the NLCS five years ago and now I'm going to return the favor.

Ah well, nothing left to do but hope we can start playing better baseball and take the next three.

P.S.  There's already a million threads out there for complaining how the Cubs won't make the NLCS anyway, so I would ask that you please keep discussion here to ticket availability and whatnot.  Thanks.

My nephew got chosen

and he took game 6. I told him it’s unfortunate that he won’t see the game because the Cubs will win it in 5.

Got mine!

I got mine today… game 2, crappy seats… 204 row 32. Doesn’t matter, if they’re there then at least I know I will be too!
