Earlier today, Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker announced some re-opening changes for Phase 4 in the state, including this:
Well, that got people all... a-Twitter, for lack of a better term, that “we could see as many as 8,000 fans at Wrigley Field” for potential Cubs games played there this year, 8,000 being about 20 percent of Wrigley Field’s capacity.
That didn’t seem likely to happen. Phase 4 re-openings in the city of Chicago’s plan generally included gatherings of up to 50 people, and it seemed improbable that the city would suddenly jump from permitting a relatively small group of 50 to suddenly allowing 8,000.
