As you may know, Oct. 21, 2015 is "Back to the Future Day," aka the date Marty McFly traveled to in the 1989 movie "Back to the Future Part II."
You might also recall that in the film, the Cubs had just won the World Series
Cubs fans have been aware of this throughout the 2015 playoffs
But after Chicago lost their third game to the Mets Tuesday night, the coincidence seemed less funny
Non-Cubs fans think it's pretty funny, though
If the Mets win their 4th game Wednesday night, the Cubs storyline from 'Back to the Future' will still be technically true
But don't get too cocky, New Yorkers. There's a 'Back to the Future' prediction that's relevant to you, too
Yes, the current GOP Presidential front-runner was a model for the villain of the 1989 movie.
In "Back to the Future 2," villain Biff Tannen buys his way to political power. Trump was born in Queens, but historically, New Yorkers have been unenthused about Trump candidacies.
The Mets may win, but there's more than enough suprising ironies for New Yorkers and Chicagoans to go around today.
