DOWNTOWN — The city threw a huge party for the Cubs Friday. Now, it's time for an even bigger cleanup job.
Trash filled the streets and Grant Park after an estimated 5 million people came Downtown and to Wrigleyville to salute the Cubs, who won the teams' first World Series in 108 years.
But those same crowds left behind the equivalent of 108 years of trash.
