Steve Bartman


On this date in 2003, with the Cubs holding a 3-0 lead against the Marlins and needing only 5 more outs to advance to the World Series, the Cubs give up 8 runs and come apart after a fan, Steve Bartman sitting along the left field foul line at Wrigley Field attempts to catch a foul ball that may have been caught by Cubs left fielder, Moises Alou.

"You know what the funny thing is? I wouldn't have caught it anyway." - Moises Alou (2008)

It's like Bartman never happened


Seattle "fan" assuring the opposing team of a home run last night.

The guy next to him had the right idea.

Give him the Bartman treatment, Chicago!



Yep, the low form of life with the sunglasses and stylish white shirt who (ALLEGEDLY) threw the beer. His face has now been seen enough so that it will come out soon just who he is and he can look forward to news crews camped out on the front lawn of his mother's house where he lives, demands for interviews, phone calls to his employer, mothers pushing their kids away from him etc. All that stuff will soon be his reality. He can also exchange that Cubs hat for a paper bag because he is going to need it.

Oh, and memo to "double pointer" guy. Don't taunt the player/victim who got hit with the beer when Security comes around. First, it is unseemly. Second, Security is going to think that you threw the beer and throw you out. It's just common sense. You missed almost half the game and it is your own fault. I don't feel sorry for you at all. But don't feel too bad. The other guy; he's Bartman now.
