Episode Details

The Cubs lost a beloved legend: James Anixter, the “Pink Hat Guy,” who spent nearly 60 years cheering from behind home plate at Wrigley Field. Wearing his iconic pink hat since 1990, he became a symbol of unwavering loyalty, warmth, and community spirit. More than just a fan, he gave back by donating hats to cancer patients and supported his family with love and humor—sneaking kids out of school for games. At 81, he passed peacefully after surgery, leaving behind a legacy of passion, generosity, and Chicago pride. The Cubs and his family honor him by asking fans to donate to cancer and Jewish community causes in his name.
