I got in this argument with this guy who comes into the bar at work about the cubs curse and the goat........ and he said that the curse involves a woman who tried to bring in her goat to the 1908 world series, and she wasnt allowed to bring the goat in....... but I know this for a fact that it was indeed 1945, the last time the cubs were even in the world series........ that it was a MAN who tried to bring in his goat to the game, which he did for a long time, and he was denied to bring in his goat.... so he put a curse on the cubs and said that 1945 was going to be the last time they ever get into the world series and that they wouldnt even win the world series in that year, which has held true ever since then......... but this guy said that he is from chicago and he knows the story and that I a m full of shit, and he wanted to bet me 1000 dollars, I told him I dont bet for money....... but anyways, I did my search on wikipedia, and I know IM right...... but he swore that in wikipedia it said that the goat incident was 1908, but I can prove it to him that it is indeed 1945....... stupid cubs fans, I hate them, they think they know everything, and they dont, they are full of shit.
I dont think so........ I do recall back in the mid 90s when they dragged this imposter goat onto the field to apologize to it, when they were doing really horribly in the standings....... but yeah, I dont think it was the actual goat......... I dont think goats last that long........... whats the longevity of a goat?? anyone??
