"Go Cubs Go!"

My husband and I are still talking about last Sunday's night game at Wrigley Field in Chicago. Cubs vs. White Sox.... and the Cubs won all the games against the Sox, with Sunday's game being the one that made the Cubs fans bring out the brooms for the "sweep" chants at the end of the last inning.

All during the game, the Cubs fans were chanting the "Go Cubs Go!" song. My aunt knew all the words and she was singing along with all the fans. By the end of Sunday's game, we knew some of the words, but not all, but my husband and I were singing along as best we could.

I looked on YouTube for the Cubs song.... impossible for me to write down all the lyrics, but the verse that always gets the loudest singing is this one-- "Go Cubs go! Go Cubs go! Hey Chicago, what do you say? The Cubs are going to win today!" And as the fans are singing the "Go Cubs Go!" song, everyone is up on their feet and swaying to the music, hands in the air and big smiles on their faces.

We have two Cubs hats in this house now... one that my husband bought at Wrigley, and one that my aunt gave us the day after the game. I have a feeling that both my husband and I will be watching all the Cubs games from now on, with both of us sitting there wearing a Cubs hat.

I should have bought us Cubs shirts when we were at Wrigley. Oh well. Next time. And I know there will be a next time.

Go Cubs go! Go Cubs go! Hey Chicago... what do you say? The Cubs are going to win today!
