What would Cubs fans give up in exchange for a World Series comeback?

By Michael Clair

With the Cubs down three games to one entering Sunday's World Series Game 5, things were looking dire for the North Side Nine. Fail to win and not only would the Cubs season be over, but it would mean that the last time the Cubs won a World Series home game was Game 6 of the 1945 Fall Classic. 
While Chicago kept hopes alive by defeating Cleveland, 3-2, the Cespedes Family BBQ boys caught up with fans before the game to see just what they'd be willing to surrender in exchange for a Cubs comeback. 
Watch the video at the top of the post to see how these fans responded to giving up cheese, beer and -- heaven forbid -- their smart phones, among other things. And then ask yourself: What would you sacrifice for your team? 
Will these fans have to give up their favorite food or will Cleveland close out the World Series at home? Tune in to FOX for Game 6 on Tuesday, for 7:30 p.m. ET air time l 8 p.m.
