Michael Lee: The New Social Media Sensation

A little over a week ago, a man took to Twitter to post a picture of his 1993 yearbook and a quote from a student that read, ‘Chicago Cubs. 2016 World Series Champions. You heard it here first.” And social media lost its mind.

It got even crazier when the Cubs actually did it, having to come back from a 3-1 deficit to claim their first World Series in 108 years.  In an interview with WGN-TV, Michael Lee, the guy who predicted the win, stated the win came to him in a dream.

“It just came from, when I was a kid, I had a dream about it,” said Lee, who attended Mission Viejo High School in California but now lives in Chicago.  “It was up on that red scoreboard with Harry Caray blasting away, ‘Cubs win World Series!’” Lee said of the dream. “It was pretty vivid. That’s why I remembered it all through high school, and now I’m getting reminded again.”  The Chicago Cubs are finally world series champions and at their parade 5 million people showed up including the man who predicted it, Michael Lee.
