One of the best games I've seen in years as the Cubs give up a 5-1 lead as the Indians tie at 6-6 in the 8th only to lose to the Cubs in 10 with score of 8-7
Game lasted almost 5 hours

Did he take the bet with D-wade?
You bet, Jack.
"Unfortunately for them, the Indians blew a 3-1 lead and fell to the Cubs, which may be a little awkward for some of the Cavs, since they’ve been cracking jokes about how the Warriors blew the 3-1 Finals lead (we may have seen the last of those jokes).
But anyway, with this loss, James will have to wear a full Cubs uniform to the Cavaliers’ game in Chicago on Dec. 2, according to the bet Dwyane Wade made that he agreed to."

Wow, "world champions" Out of curiosity, which other countries took part?
That picture of Lebron will be a wonderful trophy.
The game was pretty amazing with anxiety and plenty of flashbacks to previous opportunities lost. It's a shame it took so long, as this is how the game should have been called:
I almost went to grab world series gear right after the game, but waited to catch a few interviews and the like on TV. I went to the local Dick's expecting maybe a 45-60 minute line, and found a line that I never saw the end of before I stopped walking, likely 200-300 yards long. Check the look-around shot I took of the line before I headed back home:
LOTS OF FANS!
Very touching video. It's amazing how the Cubs fan still keep the faith through all these decades. And I read the Cubs are referred to as a 'beloved' losing team. The WS win they will cherish for the next hundred years.
We had family visiting so we were at the Grand Canyon for game 7. Ended up watching the game in a dive sports bar in Flagstaff with a motley crew of interesting and fun characters. Favorite drink in this bar was $1.50 Pabst Blue Ribbon beers so we joined their party. Once you get the first PBR down, the rest are a tad easier.
My wife has been a Cubs fan since childhood and I've lived with her through many Cubbie disappointments over the years. Her sheer joy at the conclusion of the game was amazing. Great event.
