Video of the rat appearance in Wrigley Field tonight. Some Phillies players in the dugout were taken aback.
we got Rat Cam at Wrigley Field
Go rats, go!
So a goose yesterday, a rat today… what animal is gonna end up on the field at Wrigley next game?
The glizzy W seagulls haven’t pulled up yet, so good chance they’re next.
The goose and the rat are gonna battle.
It seems to be working for the Cubs…as long as there aren’t any goats, I’m fine with a whole petting zoo being let loose on the field!
No black cats either.
Polymarket going crazy rn
Someone is going to sneak a python in tomorrow and make a fortune.
Man, I wish the Jays had something like Wrigley Field, live rats and all. So sick of the fake grass indoor baseball bullshit and a DJ instead of an organ, it kills real baseball vibes.
it’s huge! Must be feasting on left overs and supplies in dry storage. Yikes!
Dry storage is probably a world away for this guy. Besides , there is a different colony that control the dry goods and newcomers are just another mouth to feed, field rat would be isolated and possibly cannibalized.
Absolute unit.
Fair reaction from the players. Those things freak me out
Yeah they JUMPED
Jeff McNeil would call that a raccoon
Reynolds Rat
Godspeed little rat guy
Of course the Phillies were taken aback. Philadelphia is notoriously a very clean city with absolutely no rats.
You were joking when you said this but actually Philadelphia does have significantly less rats out in the open compared to the other largest cities in the country. It’s pretty rare to see one anywhere except on the subway tracks in the Southern half. There is a large population as with any other city but they tend to stay underground.
New York on the other hand…
(Also San Fran, Chicago, D.C., LA, Detroit all have much more of a rat problem, not just you guys)
Yeah but none of those other cities you mentioned have a Charlie Kelly to keep the rat population in check.
There was a squirrel near the mound at Fenway during the Sox-Yanks game last night. I guess rats are Chicago’s equivalent of squirrels.
Yeah, Boston is notoriously rat free.
They mushed em out to Framingham after The Departed hit theaters.
Guys who live a majority of the year in Philly being shocked by rats is the weirdest thing going on here.
Gotta say: the marketers that put the tarp in Reynolds Wrap advertising are not being paid enough!
Show me your 100+ year old building without rats, other mlb franchises!
Best seat in the house
That’s Frank!
So that’s what the crowd was reacting to. 🤣 You could hear it through the TV, but nothing was happening in the game.
Shoutout to the cameraman
Harper turning just after the rat is out of his field of view and giving the very visible “the fuck goin on over there?” body language is so funny
Yall gonna have those infamous rat posters up tomorrow at Wrigley?
Kinda messed up to talk about Scott Kingery that way
If you go by Wrigley at like 4:00 in the morning you can see them everywhere. The whole neighborhood has a huge rat problem, driven in large part by the overflowing dumpsters from the entertainment district as well as the amount of food waste generated by the ballpark itself. When people are around they tend to lay low, but once the bars close and the streets get quiet, they’re running around all over the place.
Wrigley Field has RATS! I found a whole rat in my Cobb salad!
