Go to a Sox game and it's a diverse crowd. It's just the way the two teams are, and it's not necessarily a good thing or a bad thing, it just is a thing. I don't think I've met a African American Cubs fan in my life 
Edit: again I'm making this statement not to be a sourpuss, but because of the one person's surprise that most Cubs fans visiting Wrigly aren't from the City proper, a city that is a extremely diverse, as opposed to the suburbs/ |
Oddly enough, I just met one this morning in Kenosha, Wisconsin at Frank's Diner where I was having breakfast along with a fellow Chicago SSPer most of you are familiar with!
