I'd argue that these are the worst fans in all of professional sports. They haven't won a title in most folks' grandparents lifetime. They've been willingly conned into accepting rebuilding schemes as "The Plan" (that will work, this time :wink: ) for the past 20+ years, yet still fill the ballpark and beg ownership to take their money.

What year did you write this post?


Any year the Cubbie faithful talk about the inflated prices they're paying on StubHub for games through July 4th; Any year the Cubbie faithful brag about attendance titles; Any year a major part of the north side baseball discussion revolves around the millions people spend to sit on charming rooftops 550-600 ft away from home plate.

Any year the turnstiles spin well in excess of 2.4MM for a second division product on the field. :D

Soooo...not recently.
