Da Bears - Travel

[HoustonFrog]

Have fun!!We love living here now. One of the best cities in the world. Hands down. Our first 3 months here we lived across Michigan Ave from Giordonos at Michigan and Lake and ate there often, though not the Chicago style everytime..regular crust.

Wife and I just booked round trip flights - leaving Saturday, coming back Monday for 25,000 miles round trip per flight. Now gotta start working on game tickets. Anybody else going?

Yup, I'll be there in full force!

[tyrrell_henley]

Booked Hotel Indigo, very reasonable, good reviews, and in good proximity to everything.

Go Texans.

For those still in need of tickets. I plan on getting mine Friday. I would like to be around other Texans fans. Not sure how hard that will be. But it would be nice to attempt. Anyone have a suggestion on section location?

I can afford to buy until next Friday, but this is the game I marked on the calendar when the schedule came out. I'm still trying to find a ticket near the Texans tunnel.

Tickets go on sale in 35 minutes. What section is that? 119? 117?

I would like to get tickets in the bottom rows 200's. But the bottom of the bowl doesnt seem much more expensive. An extra $15 a ticket.

101-155 bracket it, 256 is on top of it.

Ticketmaster is up now...3 min waiting time. Edit, just jumped to 11 min.

Got mine! Section 111 -$173 w/ fees.

[Blake]

Sweet! What Row?

[texancpa]

Got my tickets yesterday. Section 154. Already booked my flight, now all I need to do is book my room. Any recommendations on a good hotel?

I have been to several games at soldier field including the 04' Texans game where I was decked out in my Texans gear and we stuck it to them. I was with some of my family from Chicago and did the whole experience including tailgate without insident. I am going this year with a couple of buddies and will represent our boys with pride once again! Considering we knocked Da Bears out of playoff hopes 2010, feelings may have changed... In doubt, just dog on the Pack and you'll be fine!

Anyone making the trip in November let me know! We will be in Section 136 Row 10 behind Da Bears and in their ear the whole game!

Do you think the Texans will be able to sell me tickets to the bears game? I would rather buy in a section that is going to have other Texans fans with the Fan Travel program. And on craigslist and everywhere they want an arm and a leg for a ticket.

[The Pencil Neck]

My wife and I will be at the game in Section 110, row 8. We're taking a couple of friends of ours who live in Chicago and are Bears fans.

[SuperRY]

We're traveling to Chicago for the game. I wasn't able to get any tickets from Ticketmaster. I was online right when they went on sale but had no luck.

If anybody has extras, I need 4 together.

Thanks!

Yep, I was very lucky to get one when they released the single-game ones.

Cool, I'll be one over and a bit higher up (Row 19). May have to stop by and say hi. Working on a tailgate to crash when the group gets there.

Thats a big NO. Fan Travel does not split up packages.

[Blake]

Still no luck on tickets. These Bear fans think mighty highly of their tickets and their value.

...and they jack up their hotel rates for gamedays as well. I'd never seen listings (per day) that started out with 4's, 5s & 6s.
