If your office or fan cave could use some seating, you’ll be able to buy authentic seats from Wrigley Field starting Friday.
They won’t be cheap, though.
The Chicago Cubs are offering limited quantities of seat sets removed and replaced from the ballpark as part of the Cubs’ ongoing effort to restore and modernize the ballpark.
Several sections of ballpark seats are being replaced through the duration of the project, and will be made available for purchase. The removal and replacement of seats began during the 2015 offseason and most recently took place at the start of the 2016 offseason.
Starting Friday, February 3, fans will be able to purchase 2015 and 2016 seats removed from the ballpark through the Wrigley Field Seat Sale. Seats will be available to purchase as two-seat sets and have been authenticated with Major League Baseball’s seal of authenticity. Each seat set purchased will include a certificate of authenticity and a hologram on the seat back.
The seats were removed from several sections including the Terrace Reserved, Terrace Box and Field Box, and feature two ballpark riser-mounted seats attached to metal “L” shaped brackets.
Seat sets removed in the 2015 offseason cost $799, and a smaller quantity of seat sets removed in the 2016 offseason cost $899. Shipping will cost $132.99 per seat set in the continental United States and even if you live in Chicago you can’t pick them up.
