What a nail biter!

There were times when I was exclaiming, "You're killing me here, Cubs!"

They are going to go crazy in Chi-town tonight!

When they have the parade, the whole city is going to shut down!

Tribe fan here, saying congratulations, Cubbies! Although my heart is a little bit broken, I am happy for all of you long-suffering Cubs fans. I get it. I really do. lol Enjoy your victory. It was well-deserved. We just witnessed a classic World Series!

I am not a baseball fan in the least but we actually stayed up and watched this game because I was really hoping Chicago would win this. I am a Buffalo Bills fan so I could feel some small part of their pain going so long without a championship!

Congratulations to Chicago and their die hard fans!! You deserve a huge celebration!

What a way to win it! Best 17 minute rain delay ever. They regrouped and came back stronger.

My neighbors were shooting fireworks til 1am. Lol

I'm so happy for Chicago

CONGRATULATIONS to the CUBS. Both teams did an amazing job.

Congratulations to all you Cubs fans!!

Cleveland....next year or this year's NBA repeat

I know I just lost my GM for the next week. I'm sure he's already on the road to the victory parade along with the rest of the country.

And I don't even want to see the championship merchandise sales totals. I don't think mathematics has that many zeroes.

So all we need is to get Buffalo a Superbowl win and then most everything should be back to fair in the sports world, right?

Even Sox fans (myself included) were pulling for the Cubs! Now we have matching trophies!

It is a HUGE, momentous occasion for the Chicago area, the Cubs haven't won a World Series since 1908. People were setting off fire crackers,& driving down the street honking their horns. I have a creek that runs in front of my townhouse, across the creek is the parking lot for the local sports bar. Last night, the parking lot was full. I'm sure every sports bar in the Chicagoland area was packed last night.

I stood out on my balcony after it was announced the Cubs had won, you could hear the people at the sports bar cheering, yelling, & screaming in the parking lot.

The Cleveland Indians deserve recognition as well. It's not as sweet as winning the World Series, but the team did one heck of a job making it TO the World Series. (they haven't won since 1948)

That's what my son said. He & his friends went to the victory parade when the Blackhawks won their trophy. He said that it was estimated that one million people were in the city that day. Because it's been 108 years since the Cubs have won a World Series, my son told me the attendance projections for this victory parade are fifteen million people attending.
