Chicago Cubs Gary Pressy calling it quits after 33 years

I lived longer than the Chicago Cubs Gary Pressy has been the organist for the team. Pressy has been tickling the ivories for 33 years, I’ve been alive 40. And while I don’t recall my first few years as Cubs fan, I feel like he been part of the Cubs forever. Even the great Harry Caray mentioned him by name in his early years.

But alas, he’s calling it quits after 33 years as the Cubs organist. He’s played ‘Take me out to the ballgame’ in the seventh inning stretch for a cast of characters. Ozzy Osbourne, Cookie Monster, Mike Ditka and more.
