Gerald Madero, an Illinois country club chef, has done the world a service and constructed a gingerbread Wrigley Field that weighs in at 400 pounds.

“Everybody here, we're all Cubs fans, so, you know being that the Cubs won the World Series, we just thought it was right to make Wrigley Field," Madero told WREX-TV of Chicago.
