Chicago Cubs: Remembering the old outfield bleachers

Related Topics: Chicago Cubs, Wrigley Field

Most Chicago Cubs fans 20 or older can remember their first games as a young kid. Going up those stairs in the grandstand and seeing the park or heading up the ramp to sit in the bleachers. For those who went to games prior to 2005 will remember the classic outfield bleachers of Wrigley Field.

Before video boards, suites in the center field batter’s eye and wide bleacher concourses stood the longtime bleacher seats that lasted 68 years. These seats, constructed in 1937-1938 were built along with the ivy-covered walls and famous scoreboard in center that still stand today.
