In what has felt like a game of whisper down the alley in the middle of a tense high school student council race, an official announcement has finally been released by Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot regarding whether or not Cubs fans will be allowed at Wrigley Field in 2021.
And, while I disdain talk of politics in public forums, I do have to say that, all politics aside, I do appreciate the way Lightfoot approached this hotly-anticipated announcement. Rather than issuing a banal press release, Lightfoot took to the mounds at both Wrigley and that other insurance park to the south to proclaim that both Chicago ballparks would be open for business on Opening Day in April.
