The Cubs rally in Grant Park: Was it really the biggest gathering ever in Chicago?
When you've waited 108 years to win a World Series, you don't want to wait another second to put on championship gear. So how did the Cubs and retail outlets get that gear so fast? Geoffrey Baer asks himself that question and ponders the number of people who attended the Cubs rally in Grant Park. We also take a tour of historic Glessner House.
