Send Jim Mowery to Cubs Game 7 WS

Donation protected

My Dad, Jim Mowery, was at the last Cubs World Series Game on October 10, 1945 when the Cubs lost to the Tigers.  He's been a loyal and dedicated fan for 71 years ever since then.

He was lucky enough to see Game 3 at Wrigley Field, which was a dream come true.  And, after going down 3-1 in this series, it appeared that his story might just end there.

But, now that the Cubs have won Game 6, many of us think that he should go to Cleveland and see Game 7.  He'd be one of the only people to have seen BOTH Game 7's.  And, maybe this will be redemption for 1945.

This is being pulled together less than 20 hours before game time, so it's a tall order.  But, it seems that many Cubs fans around the country (and even outside the USA) have found a connection with his story.  I'm thinking that maybe there's enough support to help find him a flight, a hotel, and a ticket.  It would be nice if it was for two, so he could bring along someone from the family to enjoy the game with him.

If you feel the same, please help this effort by either donating, or sharing this post.  And, a big thank you to everyone who has sent their love to him this playoff season.  It's truly been an amazing journey.  Hoping that maybe this creates the perfect ending!
