The 108-year-long wait is over for the Chicago Cubs – more importantly, their fans – as they won the 2016 World Series Wednesday night.

And perhaps the greatest way to understand that feeling of finally winning is watching lifelong fans of the Cubs react to that final out – an emotional display that will give you goosebumps whether you love the Cubs, hate the Cubs, or don’t even care about baseball at all.

Watch as after 81 years of rooting for the Cubs, this elderly man finally got his wish:
