Grandparents who waited decades for this had the best reactions to the Cubs’ win

The fact that the Cubs waited 108 years between World Series titles has been repeated so often it’s easy to forget just how long that is. But think of all the people who lived and died in Chicago in that time. Families have gone three or even four generations without seeing a title, until last night, which is what makes these reactions so incredible.

Bill Murray isn’t a grandfather but his reaction was pretty great, too.
