Joy in Wrigleyville

[@equarg]

One old loyal Cubs man way in a coma and in hospice during the World Series. But his daughter would go to his room and tell him the results of every game. Right after they won, she went to his room and told them they finally did it. He passed away only a few hours later. Probably died the happiest man on earth that day. #truecubsfan

Chicago Cubs fans are some of the most loyal and greatest fanbases in American sports no doubt about it.

[@dereka3341]

I was born, raised and still reside in the state of Kentucky. In 1981, my family signed up for cable television. One of those channels, just happened to be channel 24, WGN out of Chicago. WGN aired most of the Cubs game. I was hooked, almost immediately. I've been a cubs fan since 1981, and winning the 2016 World Series is beyond words. To this day, I almost still can't believe it.

[@aeromedical6750]

I’m also a Kentuckian who fell in love with the Cubs via WGN. I think I woke up the entire neighborhood the night the Cubs finally broke the curse. What a memory!

[@BALLERBOYS21]

Dude wgn back in the day had the best casters. Ron Santo and Pat hughes were golden and then Len Kasper was probably the only person who could’ve filled Ron’s shoes. So sad both are no longer casting for us/alive.

So yanno.. WE DID watch this together!!

[@43STEELERS43]

I can't watch this without crying. I live right outside of Chicago and Northwest Indiana and I've been a Cubs fan my whole life. My aunt and uncle were at game 7 and got to witness it before my aunt passing a few years later. All baseball teams are special but the Cubs just have a little something extra. They bring together friends and family like no other team. That's because in my opinion that's what Chicago does. We have the best sports fans. Period

[@0209-p8h]

Ive being a baseball fan for 20years. Last week I went Wrigley field as my first MLB experience. It’s such an amazing moment in my life. Now I back to my home country, watch this video and memorize everything in Chicago. It’s a beautiful city. Go Cubs Go.

[@K20EF8]

As a Blue Jays and baseball fan I will never forget Nov 2nd 2016. One of the greatest sports games ever played, the dramatic Rajai Davis HR to tie it up and the Cubs winning it in extras with Kris Bryant smiling as it was all about to go down. Moments like that are what makes sport great.

[@jeffbenach1]

Especially when you’ve been suffering with them since 1969, as I have.

[@kentonclarkson1449]

Here's the thing: the game started on Nov 2 but it ENDED on Nov 3...my birthday. Best one I will ever have

[@violinplayer101]

I remember I was at my parent's house watching the game with my mom, and when they made the final play, we practically jumped off the couch and started crying and screaming....We called my grandpa, who has also been a life-long Cubs fan. He had fallen asleep because the game went so late, and when we told him that the Cubs had won, he cried. I remember praying that he would still be around when the Cubs won a World Series, and so the fact that he was made that last game absolutely perfect :)

[@alicebergerom1429]

My Son came over to my place to watch Game 7. He brought cold Budweiser and Panda Express. My fortune from my cookie said "'GOOD NEWS WILL BE COMING YOUR WAY VERY SOON". Did I also tell you it's been taped to the keyboard on my computer ever since?

This moment in Chicago sports history will be considered one of the greatest moments in the history of sports. Mind you I'm a diehard Chicago bulls fan and, I've seen the bulls win multiple championships in the 90's. I also happened to be a Cubs fan as well. Watching the cubs finally win the world series was such an awesome moment in my life!!! The Cubs represent optimism, belief, and never quit no matter what!!! When life gets hard, you have to get up. Life has hit me very hard this year. 2019 has not been a good year for me. But i will keep fighting no matter what!!! CHICAGO BULLS NATION FOR LIFE!!!! CHICAGO CUBS NATION FOR LIFE!!!!

[@toriboy25]

I was not born into being a Cubs fan. I grew up in Nebraska. My Mom was an all around sports fan. All she really watched was sports and soaps. Her mom and most of her siblings were/are huge Cardinal fans. (They had a very friendly rivalry ) I grew up with my parents being Royals fans. KC was only 2 hours away so we went to at least one game a year and we got KC stations so she could watch the games. Then in the mid-80's we got WGN and that is when she became a Cubs fan. She still loved the Royals but the Cubs were her team. But she liked baseball so much she even like the Braves because she could watch them on TBS when the Cubs were not playing at the same time. She died in 2012 so she did not get to see them win.

[@joshaslinger5300]

I am a die hard Cincinnati reds fan.. but this doc is amazing..it capsulates everything that is special about baseball...I remember my grandpa used to work 3rd shift..I would go visit during the summer...no matter how tired he was , he always found time to pitch to me..to talk... about the reds.. about life... he put the love of baseball in my heart.. the love of the reds... latter in life I chose to rebel to live the party life...he was extremely disipointed in some of my decision... we would drive back to Columbus from the small town he lived in .. some of those ride's were tense... with some pretty intense conversations ... but eventually the conversation always ended up about the reds...no matter how distant we became..we always had that common ground... when the reds win the world series again...I will be at his grave also.... to some people this may sound crazy... but not to me...and not the people in this documentary....GO REDS... GO BUCKEYES

For the rest of my life, my birthdays will always be marked by what happened on my 21st, and I can't think of anything better.

To the games i went to with my uncle and father and friends. To the time a 12 year old boy met Harry Carey and got his autograph and still hangs it in his home. This was the most amazing game I have ever seen. Go Cubs Go! I watched this game in Texas as a Correctional officer and will never forget that night.

[@ClassicDepravities]

if you grew up anywhere near Chicago, you knew what this would mean. We might've lived on the South Side, Sox territory, but we were Cubs fans. Every single year, I would watch to see how far the Cubs would go, and every single time they lost I would say "I am not dying until I see them win". I was at school in San Francisco when the news came out that they made it to the playoffs, and for the first time, I allowed this little bit of hope. Maybe....maybe this time. My friend called me crazy, and I couldn't blame her. They NEVER won. When the last game went to the 10th and a rain delay happened, i almost started praying. And when they won, I screamed. I called my mom. my roommates at the time thought I had gone insane cuz none of them knew the story, none of them were from Chicago. I still see that joy every day, almost two years later. there's not a day that goes by that I don't see SOMEONE wearing blue, the bar across the street flies the W, and we're still celebrating.

The sad side of this is the fact that Cleveland's fans have pretty similar stories, and they just had to watch yet another heartbreaking loss.

[@amanchabra8947]

I read comments of Cubs fans getting emotional. I am an SF Giants fan and I get emotional watching this. Why? Not because the 2016 Cubs eliminated the Giants on the way to the WS. I was mad the night it happened, but now I almost feel honored that my team was a part of the Cubs historic journey. So...not crying out of anger that the Giants lost. I get emotional because I know how it feels to finally break through. I get it. Cubs fans deserved 2016 just as much if not more than Red Sox fans deserved 2004, and White Sox fans deserved 2005, and my fellow Giants fans deserved 2010. That moment when you break through and the euphoria that goes with it is only understandable if you've been through it with your team. Great documentary, and what a great team Theo and the Cubs management put together in 2016.

I'm a life long Chicago area resident. I liked the Cubs certainly but was never a die hard fan of any sports team. I hardly had the time or energy. In my lifetime I had a chance to see every Chicago team win at least one championship. Though I'm not a Sox fan I was happy for them and their fans when the won it all. I saw Michael Jordan and Patrick Kane bring home numerous titles. I experienced the Superbowl Shuffle. Again, I was never a die hard fan of any sport. That being said, I can say without hesitation that the final out of game seven was without a doubt one of the happiest moments of my earthly life.

I'm a cubs fan bc of my grandparents they didn't even get to enjoy the world series win because they had to be put in a nursing home 3 months before the world series. I wish I could of watched it with them. Go cubs go

[@PrimeGlaz]

I remember hearing about the cubs winning the world series on the radio here in england and thinking "wait a sec they havent won in a long time" i got home and read the news that the curse of the billy goat had ended and suddenly it hit me, the fans are die hard loyalists to their club. Well done cubs

[@upchurch231]

I couldnt take it either. Turned it off and screamed into the pillow for 30 minutes until my curiosity got me and to my surprise saw the cubbies celebrating.

84 Cubs came out of nowhere...they finished last that spring in the cactus league. 2003 was the toughest for myself.

Thank you for this great video. GO CUBS GO

[@TBevill1231]

For a moment there Ole Billy and his goat thought they were going to get the final ultimate FU on the cubs. But that night even they couldn’t stop it.

[@equarg]

Taylor Bevill I think Old Billy and his Goat decided it was time to head to greener pastures after 108 years.

[@TBevill1231]

equarg That might be true XD
