CHICAGO (CBS) — The World Series champion Chicago Cubs will visit the White House on Monday, as President Obama prepares to leave office, sources tell CBS 2.
After the Cubs won the title last year, the president, a long-time White Sox fan, tweeted an invitation.
It happened: @Cubs win World Series. That’s change even this South Sider can believe in. Want to come to the White House before I leave?
— President Obama (@POTUS) November 3, 2016
