History
There is great history for Chicago Bears tickets in America. The team is one of two teams from the NFL's founding, the other being the Cardinals, who also got their start in Chicago. They started out in 1919 from the town Decatur, Illinois as the " Decatur Staleys" before moving to Chicago in 1921. It was not until 1922 that the name was officially changed to the Chicago Bears by George Halas once he acquired rights to the franchise. The team today is legally registered as the Chicago Bears Football Club, play in the North Division of the NFC for the National Football League (NFL).
George Halas aquired the team from the A. E. Staley, a Chicago based starch company. Mr. Halas's daughter, Virginia McCaskey, took over full control of the team after her father passed away in 1983. She has kept the team running as a family venture along with her husband and son. Much of the team's success comes from the 1980's when former Bears tight end Mike Ditka took over as coach in 1982. The team got many media attention for bringing the fire back to the Packers' rivalry. The exploits of lineman "Refrigerator" Perry and winning ninth NFL Championship in Super Bowl XX. Most notably remembered in pop culture for the novelty video of ""The Super Bowl Shuffle", but strongly important to the game and success of the team was the revolutionary use of the "46 defense".
Soldier Field
Chicago Bears tickets use to get you into legendary baseball stadium "Wrigley Field" before 1971. Today, long after the club outgrew the shared venue, they reside in Soldier Field. The current home of the Bears resides on Lake Shore Drive in Chicago. The stadium was needed after the merger of the AFL and NFL as the newly formed league wanted all teams to have a capacity of at least 50,000. In 2002 the stadium was closed down for renovations, which left on the original exterior walls. The almost completely rebuilt venue opened on September 27, 2003 and quickly became known as "The New Soldier Stadium" among fans.
The franchise has been improving and with huge expectations from the cities beloved fans come an increase in Chicago Bears tickets. The most inexpensive way to book your tickets is calling as soon as they go on sale to the public. Unfortunately, the biggest games of the season and heated rivalry match-up such as with the Green Bay Packers sell in minutes and can be tough to obtain.

Do some research, find a deal and get down to the stadium for an exciting game of ball.
