Presented is a ticket stub from Game 4 of the 1945 World Series when the Detroit Tigers defeated the Chicago Cubs 4-1 in a game at Wrigley Field that is known as the "Billy Goat Curse Game." Legend states that in Game 4 of the Series, the owner of the Billy Goat Tavern, William Sianis, brought his Billy Goat, named "Murphy", into Wrigley Field as a good luck mascot for the Cubs. When the rambunctious goat began disturbing nearby fans, Sianis and Murphy were "asked" to leave the stadium. Outraged that he was told to leave and take his goat with him, Sianis reportedly yelled, "Them Cubs, they ain't gonna win no more." That "curse" was interpreted to mean that the Cubs would not win another National League pennant. The Cubs had one of the team's best chances of breaking the curse on Oct. 14, 2003, when Chicago was ahead 3-2 in games in the National League Championship Series against the Miami Marlins, and in Game 6 held a 3-0 lead in the 7th Inning with one out. Then the Marlins' Luis Castillo hit a long, foul fly ball that Cubs' left fielder Moises Alou was poised to catch when Cubs' fan Steve Bartman interfered with the ball. Shaken up, the Cubs played very poorly, and the Cubs wound up giving up eight runs in the inning and lost the game, and the next night lost the Championship Series. Finally, the Cubs broke the Billy Goat Curse on the 46th anniversary of William Sianis's death on Oct. 22, 2016, when they defeated the Los Angeles Dodgers 5-0 in Game 6 of the National League Championship Series. Then the Cubs beat the Cleveland Indians, at Progressive Field in Cleveland, 8-7 in the 10th inning of Game 7 to take the 2016 World Series and win their first World Series since 1908, breaking a 108-year drought. The ticket stub measures 3.75" x 2.25". The back of the stub has some residue, perhaps from when the stub was glued onto a scrapbook page. The stub has been encapsulated and PSA graded GOOD 2 (MK).
