5 Reasons why I'm a Cubs Fan

1. Team Loyalty

Cubs Fans are some of the most LOYAL fans I've ever met. Yeah, we may not have the biggest fanbase but I think loyalty beats size any day. We may not have won in 107 years but hey, those of us who stuck around got to see that AMAZING win! #FlyTheW.

2. Family Ties

The Cubs for many may have a family tie to them. For myself, it brought me and my grandfather closer than we already were. I remember watching games with him when I was younger and always hearing him talk about how he wanted them to win. Well the night of Game 7, as soon as they won I knew my granddad had to be watching.

3. Wrigley Field

Wrigley Field is one of the coolest oldest fields out there. Every game is an experience. I haven't been to a game yet but what I've seen and heard from not only family but also other Cub fans, its beautiful. Also, when you go to a Cubs game you go for them, but also to see the beauty in person.

4. The Players

Okay, so do I even need to go ANY further about how gorgeous and TALENTED these men are???

5. History

The Cubs are one of THE oldest teams that are out there. In 1870 they were originally called the "Chicago White Stockings". After many name changes the Cubs were born.

In elementary school, I started taking mandatory Spanish classes, which I did well in because of my knowledge of Portuguese. Then in high school, on top of taking Spanish, I also started taking French. Now, in college, already fluent in English and Portuguese, I'm in the process of becoming fluent in Spanish, and I have a standard high school level understanding of French.

I am without a doubt one of those people who refuses to start decorating for Christmas or listen to Christmas music until after Thanksgiving. Unfortunately, Thanksgiving has become an underrated holiday over the years. You barely see any Thanksgiving decorations in stores; it's like they skip right from Halloween to Christmas.

Some universities only get two or three days off for Thanksgiving break. Or, if your university is like mine, you get the whole week off go go home. A whole week off is a long time.
