I Am a Chicago Cubs Fan

There is something about being from Chicago that is unlike anywhere else in the country, except maybe New York. People from Chicago are fiercely loyal to their sports teams and will go to great lengths to watch the games on television and/or attend their games in person. Being a Chicago Cubs Fan is a way of life.

Once a Chicago Cubs fan - Always a Chicago Cubs fan! This is the motto my family lives by. Though we have moved around the country quite often, we have always found a local following for the Chicago Cubs. Cub's fans are a breed of fan that is most often unmatched. We go to the extreme to cheer on our team and offer them our support. We always dress in our Cubs gear and sometimes even paint our faces.

Anytime we go back to visit our friends and family in Chicago, we make sure to first check the Chicago Cubs ball schedule. Our trips always include a trip to Wrigley Field This stadium was built in 1914 and has been home for the Chicago Cubs for over 95 years. You can actually take a tour of Wrigley Field and learn more about the history and events that have taken place there.

Wrigley's Field has been showcased in many famous movies. Pride of the Yankee's and The Blues Brothers were both filmed there. Many concerts have also played at the stadium too. Stars like Jimmy Buffet and Elton John are just two of the top name entertainers who have performed there. They make great use of the stadium when the Cubs are not playing.

Our family has many family photos taken at the stadium. The times we spend together cheering on the Cubs are some of the best times of our lives. Having these family portraits taken at Wrigley Field makes them all the more memorable. They have even graced our Christmas cards!

Chicago Cubs tickets are hard to come by. If you are not lucky enough to know someone with season tickets, then try to book your tickets as early as possible. For diehard Cubs fans, it does not matter if you have to sit in the bleachers, as long as you can say that you were there in person. In fact, bleacher fans often have the best time at a Cubs game,

During playoffs and any winning streak, you will find that their game tickets are even harder to come by. Many people have actually bought their tickets off of scalpers, paying much more than the face value of the ticket. This is a true, diehard Chicago Cubs fan. Scalping is illegal and if you are caught you can be prosecuted. Always try to plan out the games you want to see in advance so that you are assured the seats you prefer.

There is nothing like going into a local Sports Bar to catch a game and finding yourself in the midst of a Chicago Cubs Fan Club. Diehard Cubs Fans can always be seen wearing Cubs attire so they are easily spotted. There is no greater way to spend a Sunday afternoon then in the company of some fellow Cubs fans. Put on your favorite Dambroso Jersey and proudly wear the red, white, and blue that are so easily recognized amongst major league teams. After all, once a Cubs fan - always a Cubs fan!
