The incredible story of GEORGE HAGGIS the "gatecrasher", whose determination and persistence enabled him to witness some of the world"s greatest sporting events. The gate crasher always attempted to go to all the major events in Chicago, the US and throughout the world. He wanted to be there in person as it was taking place. In his mind he felt this might never happen again. Once he got into the event he always wanted to be on the 50 yard line, behind home plate, or as close to the action as possible. It was always a championship or title game, always sold out, always big bucks for tickets, the gate crasher was an average wage earner but once in he was rubbing elbows with all the big boys, the well connected, the heavy hitters. He grew up with a deep love for the Chicago Cubs, the Chicago Bears, Chicago Bulls, and Chicago Blackhawks as well as Professional Wrestling. He passed his love of Chicago and its hometown teams on to his two sons. Accompanied by a supporting cast (his family, friends, etc.). The experiences and unpredictable series of events are unforgettable covering a span of 40 years with over 50 events.
