Wrigley Field's Darkest Hour - The Steve Bartman Incident

On October 14, 2003, a single foul ball at Wrigley Field changed Chicago sports history forever. What started as an ordinary play in Game 6 of the NLCS quickly turned into one of the most intense scapegoating incidents in modern sports history, forcing a lifelong Cubs fan into hiding. For a franchise haunted by the Curse of the Billy Goat, that single moment in the eighth inning became the focal point for decades of frustration, turning an ordinary fan into an overnight outcast and deepening the pain of a 108 year championship drought.
