Question: CUB FANS !.!.!. anyone have any 'bleacher bum' stories to relate!?
Bill North was playing outfield and the bleachers sang the following lyrics to the tune of "All Around the Mulberry Bush"

North ain't in love w/ the girls anymore
He doesn't want to marry
He just sits at home and plays w/ himself
North is a fairy!

Needless to say, he made an error in that game
Thank God for the Chicago Cub's "10th man"
Cub fans are the best in the world!. When the team doesn't do well, the fans show up so they can boo the team and urge upper management to make changes!. I LOVE the Cubs!Www@QuestionHome@Com

When I was an undergrad at Loyola in the early 80s, we took a lot of dorm trips down to Wrigley and filled the bleachers!. Our dorm was a 19 story building with about 1700 people living in it, so we were an awesome presence!. The leader of most of our trips was an RA named Tim Purpura!. Imagine my shock (and horror!) a few years ago when I watched the NL Championship the year the Houston Astros won the pennant!.!.!.and there's my Chicago buddy, Tim Purpura accepting the trophy on behalf of the Astros!. Oh the pain!Www@QuestionHome@Com
