One of the oldest franchises in baseball, the Chicago Cubs have earned a reputation as loveable losers. Having failed to win a World Series since 1908, the Cubs still manage to sell out their games on a nightly basis because of their beautiful ballpark and the die-hard loyalty of their fans.
The Cubs are said to be plagued by the Curse Of The Billy Goat, baseball's second most well-known curse. The story says that the owner of the Billy Goat Tavern wanted to bring his goat into Wrigley Field, but was turned away. He apparently put a hex on the team.
