Cubs fans
North Side loyalists
Cubs fans are supporters of the Chicago Cubs, a Major League Baseball team known for its long championship drought—108 years without a World Series win until 2016.
The phrase often carries connotations of loyal suffering, as fans endured decades of futility while filling Wrigley Field: Cubs fans finally got to celebrate a title.
The term can suggest either admirable devotion or masochistic attachment to a lovable loser.
