You can tell a repeat fixture by how early the booing starts. Two weeks after the first meeting, the building arrives already holding whatever grievance came out of it, and a Thursday that looked like nothing on the schedule in July has acquired a shape nobody planned. That is how a rivalry actually forms - not by history or geography but by playing somebody twice in a fortnight while both teams need points. Chicago travels well enough that the away end will be visible from anywhere in the bowl. February is the month where a season either tips or settles, and games against the same opponent in quick succession are where that usually happens. Come for the second one rather than the first. It is always better, for reasons nobody involved can entirely explain to you afterwards. Prices for a second meeting are usually softer than for the first, because the casual buyer has already been once this month and the people who come back are the ones who actually wanted to.
