remember saying next year sometime in August
because they were already out of the competition.
It made it easy to move on to football. But I was
really a Cubs fan because my Dad and uncles
were fans. We listened to them on the radio often.
They were always in the conversation at family
outings, if you were a Wagner you were at least
aware of the Cubs. My son is a Cub fan and we
are working on the grandchildren, especially the
boys. They all have at least Cub T-shirts. Many
conversations and acquaintances have started
because I wore a Cubs hat or T-shirt. To me fol-
lowing the Cubs was a good summer hobby and
my expectations were always ven7 low. I have
been asked why you don’t go for a winner or at
least someone who has a chance. I never changed
but I couldn’t argue, it seems like everyone
should have the opportunity to celebrate a cham-
pionship in their lifetime. But I have always
enjoyed watching and rooting for the Cubs and
the last two years have been great but winning the
World Series. Just WOW!!!
I never knew what they really meant until they
won that Pennant on October 22nd, 2016. First I
watched the whole game. I usually multitask dur-
ing baseball games but not this one. I was wound
up and very nervous. I normally would have sat

A Cubs Fan: What
54 Years*
People are saying that this year’s World Series
is historical. The movie “BACK TO THE
FUTURE”, had forecast the Cubs to be there in
2015, WOW only one year off. But it is historical.
Neither team has played in a World Series for
near a half century. The Cubs are almost three
fourths of a century (71 years). That was 1945,
the year WWII ended. But they did not win. You
have to go back to 1908 forthat, so it has been 108
years ago. Just think of what that means to some
loyal fans.
I couldn’t believe how I felt on October 22nd,
2016. It was something I never expected so I
thought I would share it with others. The Cubs
had just beaten the Dodgers for their first
National League Pennant (Championship) in 71
years. My son called and I couldn’t talk, I always
have something to say when he calls. We talked
and thought of my dad who is a Cubs fan. He is
92 today so he was 21 the last time they accom-
plished this feat. Me, I wouldn’t be born for
another eight years and I am retired today. I have
