While it appears the tide is turning for the lovable losers’ fans, they now have a claim to a golden crown — they get caught peeing in public the most of anyone in Chicago.

Per DNAInfo:

As some of you might expect, the top place public urinators got caught with their pants down is in the shadow of Wrigley Field in the alley next to the Addison Red Line station.
Since 2013, police issued 77 tickets at 940 W. Addison that netted $20,750 in fines.
​

It’s no surprise, really, that Cubs fans are responsible for creating a peeing hot spot.

Long bathroom lines at nearby bars, lots of beer drinking ballgame goers and a splash of commuters desperate to relieve themselves before hopping on packed Red line trains all contribute to the public nuisance.

For instance, that time former pitcher Kerry Wood gave the famous “I can’t stop now” line when he got ticketed for “making a relief appearance” in Arizona in 1999.

Troughs for toilets at Wrigley, what do you expect. You piss in a corner in alley you have it all to yourself.

 

[aceduecetrey]

Figures.... Cubs players are the best at stinking up the place

Yeah they're terrible...

 

[aceduecetrey]

Lol

I hate the idea of a one game playoff with them. Cards just need to hang on a little longer!

 

[Willie99]

who can blame them?

what Cubs fan doesn't fear the worst is about to happen? or are they just too numb to fear anything?









PS: they probably piss their pants too

I don't even know what this is supposed to mean.

The "report" is total bullshit. The title is misleading and makes it sound like Cubs fans publicly urinate more than other baseball fans, which is silly and absurd. The actual article states that the Addison red line stop is where the most tickets are written for that in the city of Chicago. This is absolutely zero surprise to anyone who has tried to get on the red line after a 5-beer baseball game. Not to mention it's easy pickens for the police to just hang out there and write tickets.

In other words, it's not where most public urination takes place, it's where most of it is caught.

In other news, Lake Michigan is the most swam-in body of water in Chicago.

And some Chicago fans say that Boston Fans are the worst.....haha....at least we're not pissing all over the city.

You have any data to back that up? Or just pulling shit out of your ass as usual?

 

[Vlad the Impaler]

Public pissing is very underated. Cleaner than using a dirty bathroom at a sports venue. Public bathrooms are skank and smell like something that makes you gag.

"In the shadow of Wrigley Field where the Police have issued 77 citations in only 2 years" (I adlibbed a little)



Nope, not "just pulling it out of my ass "as usual"".
Nice try though.....

You ever get busted?

 

[Vlad the Impaler]

No, I have my places.

 

[Vlad the Impaler]

Think of how many gallons of skank urine and shit flow through a major sports venue per hour. Disgusting vs, pissing in the open air in a quiet spot.

First off, 77 citations in 2 years. Hahahahaha. That is one public pissing ticket for every 2 home games. So for every 90,000 some people they usher in and out of wrigleyville they write ONE ticket for pissing near the L tracks. Stop the fucking presses. What a catastrophe.

Secondly, the point I was making is, you compared Boston fans to Chicago fans. "At least we're not pissing all over the city". My question was, what data are you using when you make that comparison? What is the incidence rate of public urination outside Fenway vs Wrigley?

That's what I thought.

it's not intended to mean anything, I be just pushing buttons

Yup, I'd say they're pissing all over the place......I mean if it were only say 15,000 different place, I might not agree, but 19,000+ is a big number........

C'mon HC, if you're gonna pick an arguement with me, pick a different one... You're better than this.

Cmon HC, you know you can't argue with a Rolling Stone reporter, they'll argue even when they are wrong

 

[loomis41973]

I would think Wilbur's home would have far more instances than good old Wrigley Field....maybe he's not drinking enough water.
