Chicago News Sports Events Culture

Throughout the years, Chicago has earned the reputation as one of the world’s greatest sports cities. In fact, Sporting News has crowned Chicago the “Best Sports City” three times. It’s no wonder Chicago’s sports fans are so passionate and loyal. They are devoted to their favorite teams, the Cubs and Bears. These sports generate a staggering $600 million for the Illinois economy annually.

The impact that sports have on the Chicago economy and society are truly astounding. According to a recent study, sports create a number of positive effects for communities. Sports help kids get active, raise awareness about important issues, and generate money for charities and other worthy causes. They also create passion and joy. For example, the Boston Bruins visited a local children’s hospital on Halloween to cheer up sick patients. The players dressed as characters from the Disney movie Frozen. In addition, the athletic department of Northwestern launched a program called Reach Out and Reinforce Respect. This program aims to prevent bullying and teach respect to children. The program is run by student athletes and the athletic department’s community relations team.

For fans who aren’t aware, sports are a billion-dollar business. The Chicago Bears haven’t won a Super Bowl since 1985, but the Blackhawks have won two Stanley Cups in 2010 and 2013. The Bulls dominated basketball in the 1990s and the Cubs have been a top contender in baseball for more than a decade. The Chicago Cubs generate $600 million for the state of Illinois each year.
