What if I told you my grandparents were Blackhawks season ticket holders when my mom was growing up? Two uncles are Cubs fans and the other is a Sox fan. Of course, everyone is a Bears fan. I had my Bears parka in junior high - which people in Eastern WA scratched their heads at.
Seattle is becoming a pretty good sports town, but I’ll admit, Chicago is in a league of its own. That and Lou Malnati’s pizza. Always have at least one frozen one in my fridge (about as close as I can get to fresh Lou’s in the PNW).
