I’ve rooted for the Cubs my whole life and I will continue to do so. But I’m moving out of state. In my head, I kinda feel like the Cubs won this for me as a going-away present. To return the favor, the red chair and I headed into the city … Just because.

About a third of the people on the train had Cubs shirts or hats on. The celebration began in the Ogilvie Transportation Center.

The Civic Opera was flying the W and put a message on the marquee.

I hopped on the Red Line and headed north.
