    Watching/experiencing the drunken idiots on the train after a Cubs game can either be an extreme annoyance or a wonderful source of entertainment. Just make sure they don't throw up on you.True story!

    Sometimes my favorite place when 3/4 of the train leaves and then it's as if there was nobody on the train to begin with! On the other hand it's hell when it was empty and becomes a frat house party!

    Don't try to board the cars near the steps and escalator. Walk to the end of the platform. You're far more likely to find a car that isn't as crowded and maybe even a seat!!

    Go to the right after you go through the revolving gates and duck through the alley to avoid crowds on Addison.

    If you wanna avoid crowds, go in/out the back doors & use the alley to access the station.

    Suburbanites coming to see the Cubs. There is a reason you are referred to with the adjective SUB-URBAN

    If you're trying to leave Wrigleyville at the end of a Cubs game, just wait for the next train. Giving up 7 minutes until the next train comes is worth not being sardined into an overcrowded train.

    The far exit at the end lets you out on the other side away from Addison, the other side of Wrigley if you’re looking to somewhat avoid crowds

    Don't try to catch a west bound bus before or after a Cub's game. It's a nightmare and even worse if the CubS are in the play offs.

    The Redline was here long before all the people on the train that are complaining about all the people on the train were.

    Alcohol, pee, sweat and BO. If you feel clean and go by here after a game... Goodluck!

    The exit that goes to the south side of Addison is a lifesaver on game days.

    If it's a game night, avoid this stop at all costs. The hordes of irresponsible morons are quite likely to puke all over you.
