Growing up as an Atlanta Braves fan, I often watched Chicago Cubs games since both teams are in the National League. So I've always been interested in Wrigley Field. As a kid, I remember watching the Cubs Day game at Wrigley on WGN and watching the Braves on TBS later that night.
Want to watch events like the NHL Winter Classic at Wrigley Field? (Related: NHL continues left-wing prank by allowing singers wearing pro-Palestinian costumes to sing national anthem)
Yeah, I think that's pretty cool.
