Remember back in April, how we learned that the Chicago Cubs had made it tougher for their employees to sell their World Series rings -- thus limiting the potential for fans to acquire a piece of history? Well, one lucky fan just landed a championship ring -- and it was courtesy of the team.
Geneine Dietz, a former Wrigley Field usher, was awarded a World Series ring after she won a ticket raffle. The raffle featured more than 25,000 entrants, yet Dietz won -- and did so with a ticket number of 001907, which is amusing, given that was the year the Cubs won their first World Series.
