Terrible! Cheap! But close to the bar!!!

★★★★★

These seats were just as bad as I remembered them. I figured, hey, maybe old man wrigley improved these deeper seats with the renovation but nope, not at all, poles are still there. Not surprising considering how cheap these tickets still were (comparably). One thing that was new about the seats was the special roll-away bar behind the section. In the top corner of the 200 level, behind 231 you’ll find a little bar that rarely gets the traffic of the main stands. To make up for the crappy view, I took full advantage of the bar. Made the experience more memorable but less memorable at the same time. Always trying to look on the bright side for my Cubs!

Clear View for Budget

I like these seats alot because the poles are in the back of the section leaving clear views for almost all the seats. It is also the last section under cover... Although be careful in higher number seats as they may be left open. You can see the video board and the game perfect though which is all I care about when I go to a game.

Great view of the field. No obstructed views from pillars. Not covered seating but personally didn’t mind.

Terrace Boxes
-
The Terrace Boxes at Wrigley are the first 6 rows of the 200-numbered sections and most importantly are the only Terrace seats with no obstructions. Sitting here, fans will be raised above the main walkway between the Terrace Level and Field Boxes below. Many fans love sitting in these seats due to their elevated views to the field. When looking for tickets the order of desirability is as follows: Terrace Box Home Plate: Sections 213-222 Terrace Box Infield: Sections 209-212 and 223-226 Terrace Box Corner: Sections 202-205 and 230-233 What to Consider When Buying Terrace Box Tickets The biggest benefit of buying a ticket in the Terrace Box location is having the peace of mind that your view will not be obstructed by the well known poles at Wrigley Field. While seats in the Terrace Box Corner are listed last in terms of desirability, many fans would still prefer them over Terrace Reserved seats in rows 7 and above where it is almost guaranteed some part of the field will be blocked. Another benefit is that all Terrace Box seats - except for those in the Corner - will be under cover and in the shade for day games. The combination of an unobstructed view and protection from bad Chicago weather make these the ultimate peace-of-mind seats.
Terrace Reserved
-
Terrace Reserved is the largest seating group at Wrigley Field and is home to the famous obstructed views behind poles. Rows 7 and higher in sections 202-233 are all Terrace Reserved. While there are still good views and deals in these seats, it is important to know that it is highly likely that some portion of the field will be blocked by a pole. For some seats that is an area of the outfield, and others it is the batter's box and everything in-between. To avoid the obstructions look at Terrace Box seats located in the first 6 rows of these sections. The same concerns exist for those looking at concert tickets as it relates to the stage. Seating Information Terrace Reserved Preferred seats in rows 7-15 of sections 209-226 will be located along the infield and be the best option of the Terrace Reserved seats. As you get to the higher rows (15 and above), the overhanging upper deck begins to drastically minimize your view of fly balls as well as the center field scoreboard and outfield videoboards. These seats are referred to as the Terrace Reserved Infield and are some of the worst seats at Wrigley Field. Moving further out toward left and right field is the Terrace Reserved Outfield location in sections 202-208 and 227-233 which are the outfield version of Preferred seats. In the back rows of these sections are the Terrace Reserved Outfield Corner seats and should only be purchased as a last resort due to their heavy obstructions. Some of the cheapest tickets at Wrigley Field will be in these sections. Why Buy Terrace Reserved Tickets? Even though sitting here comes with a good amount of risk in terms of view, they are also among the best places to find complete shade or cover during a sunny or rainy game at Wrigley. This makes it a good option for families with young children who may not be as frustrated as much by the obstructions. Many fans also notice the lower price tags in these sections especially near the outfield making them ideal for any fans looking to attend a game or show at Wrigley while on a budget.

(Section 207) - ★★★★ -
Attended Cubs Reds on August 5, which surprisingly ended up in a Cubs win. It was maybe mid to high 80s with some typical Chicago summer humidity. But lucky for us, these seats were in the shade thanks to being under the overhand of the upper deck. The wind was blowing in from the northeast and p...

I want to bring someone that has a fear of heights, what area would be best?

Aug 2018

---

If you are attending a game with someone that has a fear of heights avoid any 400 or 500 sections. All other sections are on the ground level and don't feel high up in the air. The cheaper options will be in the 200 sections and will be a little further away while sections 2-40 and 101-142 will be nice and close to the field. These close seats will be pricier.
