Sometimes you see a picture – or, in this case, conceptualize the contents of a picture – and you know, “well that’s just gotta be a photoshop.”
So when I heard that there was a picture of coyotes (like, of the actual, wild variety, not the Wile E. or the Phoenix hockey variety) at Wrigley Field, I knew there was some photoshop joke there.
But not so. Photographer Will Byington was in Wrigleyville late Saturday night when word started circulating around the Cubby Bear that there were coyotes prowling around outside. So he grabbed his camera, and boom, magnificence:
(Kudos to Will Byington for the quick trigger – hit up his photography site as a thanks.)
Coyotes in suburban (and, in this case, borderline urban) Chicago is apparently not completely atypical, but you don’t usually see them roaming the streets looking for food/scalping Cubs tickets.
The picture is, of course, ripe for captioning, so give it a go if you’d care to. Otherwise, just enjoy the picture.
“We heard there used to be donuts here…”
“Has anyone seen our Cubs?”
Upon further research, it appears baby coyotes are called “pups”, not “cubs”.
Comment retracted.
This is too easy and not original at all, but applicable: Coyote Ugly!
So we can eat the cubs inside there?
“We heard that you have a billy goat problem. Anything we can do to help?”
I like this one
Maybe they heard Deer was at Wrigley.
Hahahahahahahahahahahahaha. FTW!!!
Cubs situation not as bad as we thought. Those are only Coyotes at the doors not Wolves.
Just wait.
Apparently the Cubs are considering all options. If Air Bud can play basketball, we should see what a coyote could do at 3B…
Maybe the coyotes are just waiting for an arm to fall off from the Cubs IR…
Now THAT is funny, Kuphan!!!
With the coyotes around Wrigley, that should take care
of all the goats!! The curse is over!!
It’s not our fault!
Pig-rat, 10 o’clock.
Waiting to have a howling good time …
Is this the line for the cubs?
We escaped from Lincoln Zoo for this?
We can haz monkeys off your backs?
Guess it’s true they really can sense the weak and sickly prey.
Theo and Co. have a new way to determine who’s worthy of making the 40man roster. Like clearing “internal waivers”…the Cubs Way.
Maybe the Coyotes are looking for a Tony Campana snack…
They say he’s faster than the Road Runner.
Coyote Cubly.. We are here..
As a goat we fear damn coyotes
1st Coyote:
This is the line?…….. For opening day 2014?
2nd Coyote:
Yeah. Haven’t you seen their record the last 2 years?
1st Coyote:
Yeah man, but these are the Cubs!!!!!!
2nd Coyote:
I know. I guess we’ll have to wait til they start spending money on players before we come back here to eat.
So, uh, they got, like, chili dogs here?
Hey, Theo, let us in! We’ve brought your Acme Baseball Team Rebuilding Kit!
It’s Theo and Jed reenacting a scene from Twilight. Wolves are so much cooler but, well, it’s Theo and Jed.
We heard that there are bison and dogs here to consume. Is it true?
Tom Ricketts was serious about stopping the scalpers
Now Jed/Theo have a new excuse as to why attendance fell…
I’ll play third. You pitch!!!
We heard a bunch of seagulls show up here every afternoon around 5.
I still think having a coyote infestation is a step above anything US Cellular is capable…
I heard somebody spotted Giancarlo Stanton at a starbucks nearby!!!
Nice.
