"Snowshoe Sweat"


5 of 9

  "Bartman Ball goes Kaboom" The baseball from the eight inning missed catch of the Cubs Game 6 of the NLCS is destroyed by a special effects technician outside Harry Caray's restaurant in Chicago, February 26, 2004. The destruction of the baseball, originally caught by Cubs fan Steve Bartman, and later purchased by the restaurant for over $100,000 dollars, is thought to bring an end to the 'curse' that many believe caused the Cubs to lose to the Florida Marlins in last year's National League Championship Series.
