It was the summer of '69 and Wrigley Field became the breeding ground for Cubs Fever. With a roster full of All-Stars and future Hall of Famers, the team got off to a hot start and Cubs fans finally felt like it was their year. A winning Cubs season couldn't have come at a better time.

"I felt the game was more a way of releasing pressure and stress on people's lives, kids lives, just coming to Wrigley Field to watch us play." -Ernie Banks
