Chicago Cubs Baseball game with Rateyourseats.com

July 3, 2023 by Chi@glance

“Go Cubs Go…Go Cubs Go…Hey Chicago what do YOU say?
Cubs are going to win TODAY!”

You can’t have #SummertimeCHI without a trip to the ballpark! Whether you’re a Northside Cubs fan or a Southside Sox’s fan…summer is not complete without a baseball game filled with yummy food and libation of your choice.

My friend and I decided to ditch the workday and head to a Friday afternoon Cubs game. A little birdie told me about RateYourSeats.com, so we decided to try it out for our ticket purchase. Rateyourseats.com is not just for baseball events. I was also eyeing the NASCAR Chicago race and Drake concert coming up. The site has a wide range of events to choose from. Just type what you’re looking for in the search box and see what options pop up.  It’s really cool that you can view the seats on an actual map of the stadium.

Map of the stadium to help you pick your seats

On https://www.rateyourseats.com/tickets/chicago-cubs the ticket prices are set by the sellers which means the tickets can be higher or lower than face value price. Think about this scenario… if you bought tickets to an event and can no longer go. You’d rather get some money than no money, so a lot of times you can find discounted tickets on this site. Also, as the name suggests…you can “Rate your seats” to help future ticket purchasers.

Our Seats! 415L Row 3 Seats 6 & 7

Nascar Star Bubba Wallace threw the first pitch

Our tickets were delivered straight to my email address. So simple and easy! I saved the tickets to my Apple wallet for even easier access. Our seats were in the 400 section, but judging by the online map it looked like a great view of the field… and it was. 🙂 We had an awesome view of the field and all the action. Guess who was in town and threw the first pitch of the game….Nascar Star Bubba Wallace. Also, the Cubs won against the Cleaveland Guardians. Want to head to a Cubs game this summer?

Last night I attended Dialogues, which is an onsite discussion offering a deeper look at some of the themes, artists, and partnerships at the fair. I attended the panel 𝐀𝐑𝐓 𝐚𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐎𝐛𝐚𝐦𝐚 𝐏𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐢𝐝𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐚𝐥 𝐂𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐫: 𝐒𝐡𝐚𝐩𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐏𝐮𝐛𝐥𝐢𝐜 𝐌𝐞𝐦𝐨𝐫𝐲 𝐨𝐧 𝐂𝐡𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐠𝐨’𝐬 𝐒𝐨𝐮𝐭𝐡 𝐒𝐢𝐝𝐞 (Moderated by: Virginia Shore (Curator of commissions, Obama Presidential Center)).

The conversation brought together a selection of contributing artists from the Obama Presidential Center’s commissioned art collection to share their ideas, research, and process driving these significant public commissions. Speakers explored how they are responding to the cultural and civic bison of the Center (opening this June) and the profound significance of creating new work for this landmark institution on Chicago’s South Side. @Obamafoundation
