Even when it snows, the atmosphere on Soldier Field is more than thrilling.
Wrigley Field
The Chicago Cubs are one of the founding members of the NL and one of the most popular teams in the MLB. Their home is the Wrigley Field and fans flock each weekend to see their team play. The atmosphere is captivating and the Cubs enjoy great support from their fans each time around. The Cubs finally brought joy to their fans in 2016 when they won the World Series after 71 years, the longest wait for any MLB team. But as the Cubs fans wait, it was worth it to suck so long as it made the championship title so much better.
