Jonathan said... That someone said at Wrigley Field fans did not like the smell of the pet goat that Billy Sianis brought to the 1945 Cubs world series and was asked to leave. He found that offensive so he cursed the Cubs saying "Them Cubs, they aren't gonna win no more." It is called the Billy Goat curse and the Cubs have not won a World Series to date.
Did you know that Jackie Robinson was the first black person to play baseball, and he integrated baseball between white and black players. Before he started playing blacks and whites played on separate leagues.
