Fun Facts from Drunk Girls

By The Second City | May 1, 2014

Oh my God, Wrigley Field turned 100 years old and no one told me. Wait, where is my cell phone? Tiff, have you seen my cell phone? 

The Name

You know, Wrigley used to be called Weegham Park, you know, then it was Cubs Park and now it’s, oh my God, I left it in the Uber. I fucking left my fucking cell phone in the fucking Uber and I’m going to fucking hang myself.

The History

No, I will not stop crying, DANNY. This is America and Wrigley Field is the second-oldest ballpark in the Major League so no, DANNY, I will not stop crying, you dick rash.

MAKE YOURSELF USEFUL AND GET ME A TISSUE. MY EYELINER IS STINGING MY CONTACTS.

The Legend of Babe Ruth’s Called Shot

Beccs, did you know Baby Ruth called his mom before he hit a home run? Isn’t that sooooo sweet? It’s like, maybe that’s why he was called Baby Ruth. Or, like, why it’s a home run.

Wait, Rebecca? Rebecca? Open your eyes! Are you okay? SOMEONE CALL 911!

A Guy Who Sang with Jimmy Fallon on SNL Played Here

Babe, remember when we were fucking wasted and listened to Paul McCartney sing your senior yearbook quote outside the field? And then I stepped on one of our empties and it stayed on my shoe for like, 8 songs? Like a little Dutch clog? Oh my Gooood, I am so fucking in love with you.

There’s Blue Ivy

You’re not even listening to me, Brent! The ivy was planted in 1937, and I dressed as Poison Ivy in 2007. So stop pretending like you’re the only one with a legit connection just because your buddies wrote Brent “ham slammer” Eisley on a stupid brick. 

Baby, I’m so sorry, come back! You know I can’t run in these heeeeeels!

Ernie Banks Did Stuff

They Still Serve Old Style
