It also looks like Sept 16 has availability. The show has open seating, so we don't need to buy together, we'll just need to meet up before they open the doors for the taping.

in the article, he states that he yelled "stop, stop, stop", and one of the comments says he should've yelled, "wait, wait, wait...don't hit me." :)

You may also be able to negotiate a group rate if you get enough people. I went to last Thursday's taping with a group of Windy City Rollers and we all got in for $11 and they had a section at the front roped off for us. It was great fun and they even told the host ahead of time that we were there so he called us out at one point. I think the person to talk to is Don Hall - donhall at chicagopublicradio dot org.

Holy cow, that was fast! So what say ye chainlinkers?
"Awesome. I'm sure Peter would love the support!
We only offer a discount for groups of 40 or more, but tickets will be
on sale for September 30 next week. September 16 is still available but
is closing in on "sold out" pretty fast."

Hi Don-
You were identified as the man to talk to about groups which wish to
attend "Wait, Wait" tapings. We are a group from the chainlink dot org,
which also counts Peter Sagal among its bike freak membership. Given his
recent cycling mishap, we had hoped to bring a dozen or two cyclists to:
a. show support if he's still suffering; or b. give him a hard time if
he's sufficiently healed. We'd be interested in attending the Sept. 16th
or 30th taping. Though not completely necessary, everybody likes a
discount and we would be interested in hearing about any pricing options
based on group size. Your prompt consideration is greatly appreciated.

I think that getting a group of 40 might be a little challenging. Perhaps we should just buy seperately? It sounds like we'd need to buy now to get Sept 16, but it might be a bit more timely.

I'd be up for either date as well, but don't know what "closing in on "sold out" pretty fast" means. Hate to have twelve people who want to go and only 10 remaining tickets available.

Well, then maybe we should just do the 30th? This way we can build up a bigger group.

Two Initial thoughts/questions:
1) What time is the show?
2) I bet we could get 40 Chainlinkers if we all put our heads together! I mean, come on, there are 4000 riders on the this site and another XXX that look at this site often but aren't members.
My 2 cents.
