If you're a Cubs fan who wants to see your team play at home in the World Series, you'd better be a season ticket holder. Otherwise,
a single ticket on the secondary market could set you back $8,500. If you're
really lucky, you might get away with a crap seat behind a pole for a mere $3,981. Why the outrageous costs? Simple! The last time the furry little fellers from
The North Side captured a World Series title, the Ottoman Empire was still in power (1908). If
The Sons Of Joe Maddon break the 106-year
"Curse Of the Billie Goat" (technically only in place since their last World Series
appearance in 1945), fans will not likely whine about putting out a small fortune to see it.
