Ronnie Woo Woo is Ronnie Woo Woo Whickers. He was a homeless guy at ome time and his claim to fame is being the number one Cub fan. He is rather loud and obnoxious and roams the bleachers yelling this chant saying "Cubs Woo Cubs Woo, Cubs Woo", and does it for hours. Also keep in mind that he is dressed in a full cubs uniform including the styrups and shoes. I actually bought him lunch one time and he was rather interesting to talk with.

Well, that didn't go well. Harvey was dealing and the Mets defense was great. Still had a great time. Good atmosphere and pretty nice Mets fans around me. (Even the blotto guy in front of me who kept trying to high-five me after every good Mets play. "Dude, I'm a Cubs fan. I ain't high-fiving you.") And the $12 beers helped dull the pain.

As for my "trip," I'm on Long Island, Valley Stream specifically. Easy ride on the LIRR. Tough being a Cubs fan in these parts and they only come to town once a year, so I don't get to see them all that often. Haven't been to Wrigley in years. Dying to go again. As for this series, the Cubs really need Arrieta to step up tonight. If they go down 0-2, Cubs are in big trouble. They just don't have the pitching to match up with the Mets' young guns. My one consolation about last night was that we hit a lot of balls hard. It wasn't like Harvey was untouchable. Just seemed to hit the ball right at people (literally, in Harvey's case; that ball nearly took his head off), or the Mets would make a terrific defensive stop. Anyway, hope we can make a series of it. Go Cubs!

It was only game 1 and if you recall correctly, we lost game 1 to the Cards in the NLDS so do not panic. And yes, I do understand the history of the Cubbies but hopefully this year will be different.

Ronnie Woo Woo hoots until someone buys him a beer - that's his scam. If you see him coming quickly buy him a beer and ask him to move on. His woo has lost a lot of bite as he has gotten up in the years - he peaked around 1984.

I HATE the Cubs. Hope they get swept and lose every game 100-0. Not just this series, every game, every year, forever.
Go White Sox! (The last team to actually got to & win a World Series from Chicago, for those you have forgotten).

Your spelling is horrible--it should be GO METS
