Cubs writer dives into Lake Michigan after Ian Happ bet


by - Senior Editor -

Cubs writer Michael Cerami posted on social-media that if Ian Happ led off the game with a homer on Opening Day then he would jump into the freezing waters of Lake Michigan.

The odds of that happening are pretty small. But it happened.

Happ drilled the first pitch of the 2018 season into the stands in the Cubs 8-4 win over the Marlins on Thursday afternoon.

The honest Cerami was a man of his word and jumped into the frigid lake according to the following video.

Ian Happ approved the diving into Lake Michigan.
