CHICAGO — With Wrigley Field hosting its first World Series since 1945 this weekend, Cubs fans from across the country have flocked to Wrigleyville to walk the streets around the historic ballpark.
Most of them aren’t actually attending the game. Most are just wandering around the ballpark. Some have signs.
PHOTOS: Cubs fans' dreams fade away
Some have really good signs. It’s become a habit to walk around Wrigley a couple of times before the game. My SN baseball colleague, Jesse Spector, does that, too.
So we thought we’d put some of the best sights and sounds here in one easy spot. Hope you enjoy.
