Cover charges for Wrigleyville bars reach the ceiling as World Series continues

If you’re one of the brave souls that plans on watching the World Series in Wrigleyville, then you, your friends, and your wallets need to be prepared.
A handful of bars in the neighborhood are massively upping their cover charge prices during the World Series, and a bunch are breaking their ‘no-TV’ rule for the occasion. Many are offering “World Series Packages,” which with admission includes one entree, one appetizer, and drinks from the 7th through the 9th inning, however you’ll most likely be standing as seating isn’t guaranteed. They’re charging even more for reserved seating – between $500 and $1,500 for most establishments, and space is selling out fast.
Luckily, there’s another handful of bars that aren’t charging an entry fee. The only drawback is making sure that you’re there way ahead of the crowd because the lines will be ree-diculous.
So what’s it gonna be? Check out our guide below to start making your game plan. Go Cubs!
