Want to see World Series at Wrigley? It will cost thousands

CHICAGO (AP) — Fans hoping to see the Cubs play in the World Series for the first time since 1945 are finding a seat could cost them more than what their grandparents paid for their houses. Ticket prices are up in Cleveland, too, but prices suggest Indians fans are not willing to pay nearly as much. [...] there are indications that Cubs fans, getting a look at what they'd pay at Wrigley versus Progressive Field, are buying two tickets: one for a plane and one for a game. Ticket brokers were being flooded with calls from fans looking for tickets and, as of Monday, they were willing to pay as much as $12,000, said Dan Makras of Classic Tickets in Chicago. [...] he said prices might climb because Cubs fans are proving to be reluctant to sell no matter how much money they're offered. Fans with more creativity than luck or money are making some unusual pitches to pry tickets from the hands of their owners.
