Rain-Delayed Wrigley Field Erupts After Chicago Blackhawks Win Game 5

The Chicago Cubs' game against the Cincinnati Reds was delayed because of rain on Saturday night, but fans still got to cheer on a local team: the Chicago Blackhawks.

During the rain delay, Wrigley Field management decided to put Game 5 of the Stanley Cup Final on the Jumbotron to keep fans occupied. The Jumbotron, which is fairly new, provided much excitement to the fans, including this eventual game-winning goal by the Blackhawks.
