Chicago Cubs win the World Series

From the BBC, an article about the Cubs winning the World Series:

The last time the Chicago Cubs won, Theodore Roosevelt was President, women did not have the vote, and neither zippers nor hairdryers had been invented.

The Chicago Cubs have won the World Series, ending the longest title drought in the game.
Manager Joe Maddon's team beat the Cleveland Indians 8-7 in ten innings to scoop the top prize in world baseball.
The Cubs, who had been 3-1 down in the best-of-seven series, blew a three-run lead in the final game but came back after a rain delay to clinch the title.
The last time they were crowned champions was in 1908, over a hundred years ago, when they beat the Detroit Tigers 4-1.
In 1945, a curse was placed on the team by local bar owner Billy Sianis. He is said to have cursed the Cubs so that they would never win a World Series game again, or even reach the World Series again (different versions of the story exist). "There's no more curse now, the goat is history," said Cubs fan Rodrigo Gonzales moments after victory had been achieved.
President Barack Obama, who supports city rivals the Chicago White Sox, tweeted about the win:

"It happened: the Cubs win the World Series," he wrote. "That's change even this South Sider can believe in. Want to come to the White House before I leave?"

The win gave the Cubs their third World Series crown. It also sparked wild celebrations in the streets of Chicago, with fans congregating outside the team's Wrigley Field home. Many of them took turns writing their names and words of congratulations in various colors of chalk on Wrigley's brick walls.

Rico says, now that that's over, maybe we can get the election over with, too...
