  • For most of his life, Sam Sianis, who owns the Billy Goat Tavern, has lived under the shadow of the Billy Goat curse. In 1945, Sam's uncle Bill Sianis placed this curse on the Chicago Cubs when they wouldn't allow his pet goat into Wrigley Field for the World Series, the last time the Cubs appeared in the series. In 2016, the Cubs broke the 108-year World Series Championship dry spell.

  • Everyone at Wrigley Field seems to know Ronnie "Woo-Woo" Wickers who hopes to celebrate his 75th birthday with a Cubs World Series win. The wear and tear of a half-century of "wooing" for the Cubs has prompted Wickers's voice to come and go. "I try to get past it," he said. "People ask me to cheer, I give them a 'woo.' Sometimes it's still there. But I promise if they win the World Series, it will come back again. This team is in it to win it. And when they do, that's all the medicine I will need."
