Chicago boasts an impressive lineup of major league teams that have captured the hearts (and sometimes the livers) of millions.
Tip: Slow down when you hit important details.
The Chicago Bulls: These guys are like the Jordan of basketball teams. With a history that reads like a highlight reel, the Bulls have dominated the NBA, thanks in part to a certain number 23. Even if you weren’t alive for the Jordan era, you’ve probably seen the documentaries.
The Chicago Bears: The Monsters of the Midway, as they’re affectionately known, are the NFL's gridiron giants. From Walter Payton to Ditka, the Bears have produced some legendary players. Just don’t mention the Super Bowl Shuffle.
The Chicago Cubs: Loveable losers, underdogs, and eventual World Series champions. The Cubs have a fanbase that's as resilient as a cockroach. Wrigley Field is more than just a ballpark; it's a Chicago institution.
The Chicago Blackhawks: These hockey heroes have brought Stanley Cups to the Windy City, much to the dismay of Detroit and St. Louis fans. Their red and black jerseys are as iconic as the city itself.
