blackrican23 Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 A goat's head was delivered to Wrigley Field on Wednesday addressed to Chicago Cubs owner Tom Ricketts, a team spokesman confirmed. No note was included, and it was turned over to Chicago police."We got a call at 2:30 p.m., responding to 1060 West Addison, Wrigley Field," a Chicago Police Department spokesman said. "We're investigating it as an intimidating package." The package was found at Gate K near the field, the team spokesman told the Chicago Tribune.It's possible the goat's head is in reference to a "curse" placed on the team during the 1945 World Series. Restaurant owner Billy Sianis brought his goat to a game, but was asked to leave and he vowed the team would never win again.The Cubs lost that series and have never been back. They last won a championship in 1908, the longest drought in professional sports.The Cubs are currently locked in a tense negotiation with the city and neighborhood regarding the renovation of Wrigley Field and the desire to play more night games. A deal was hoped to have been reached by the start of the regular season but is still being negotiated. http://espn.go.com/chicago/mlb/story/_/id/9158055/goat-head-delivered-chicago-cubs-owner-tom-ricketts-wrigley-field Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
