The Watch Lustful Ghost OnlineChicago Cubs are one win away from their first World Series in 108 years. Before 2016, the Cubs hadn't even been to a Fall Classic since 1945.
So when they face the Cleveland Indians in Game 7 on Wednesday night, you can bet Cubs fans everywhere will be watching Chicago try and end its historic championship drought.
But for those who have a prior engagement, don't fret.

Wednesday night marks something Major League Baseball hasn't seen for, well, 71 years — the Cubs in a Game 7. And let's not forget: The Indians are also looking to end a 68-year championship drought.
Winner-take-all games already carry an elevated significance.
But this Game 7 is on a completely different level. History is at stake. If it feels like a once-in-a-lifetime experience, that's exactly what it is. Some Cubs fans have lived full lives without seeing Chicago win a World Series.
Schedules will be shifted. Plans will be canceled. And yes, officialquestionable excuse notes will be written.
Game 7 doesn't happen every year. Especially not like this.
