    Chicago Archdiocese gets *100* tickets to see Pope In NYC

    Reported today by the Chicago Tribune:

    Before you plunk down your plane fare to New York and make a reservation at the Ritz so you can celebrate mass with Pope Benedict XVI, make sure you’re one of the 100 lucky winners to score a ticket.

    That’s approximately how many Chicago Catholics will be admitted to see the pontiff in Yankee Stadium on April 20. Even fewer are expected to get into the Nationals Park mass in Washington, D.C., on April 17.

    Pastors at each of Chicago’s 363 parishes have been asked to submit four nominees to Cardinal Francis George, whose office will conduct a lottery to choose the winners. Entries must include the priest or parishioner’s name, date of birth and address as well as a guarantee that, if chosen, they will go. Guests must also be prepared to show a photo ID at the stadium entrance. The deadline for pastors to submit names is Feb. 8.

    I will update my frequently-updated post on how to get tickets to see the Pope with this information.

    My complete coverage of Pope Benedict's April visit to the USA is available here.
