WRIGLEYVILLE — Some Cubs fans have waited 71 years to see their team in the World Series — but that's nothing compared to the 497 (dog) years Chicago's four-legged fans have had to wait.
Seeing the Cubs in the World Series once seemed like a far-fetched dream, but these fans weren't afraid to be there in the ruff times. Now that the Cubs have made it, these dogs are going mutts and are decked out in their team gear and are ready to paw-ty.
We couldn't resist getting photos:
This is my official "dogs are the cutest Cubs fans" thread.
