Bill Murray gives Indiana woman, Cubs fan World Series ticket

Posted on 11/03/2016 6:40:07 AM PDT by Scythian_Reborn

Karen Michel, a fan from Whiting, told MLB.com she was hoping that there might somehow be an extra ticket available at the Progressive Field box office. After being told the game was sold out, she spotted Murray walking by and decided to follow him.

"He turns around and says, 'Here, here's a ticket,'" Michel told MLB.com. "And he kind of shuttled me into the door. I thought it was just a ticket to get in. But it was a ticket to sit right here."



You can see her here next to Bill Murray. She got to sit in a $15,000 seat with Bill Murray and hang out with Murray, Eddie Vedder and others all night, amazing, she didn't give up, what a cool story more ...

Murray always seems to do random acts of kindness.

Not a bad way to live at all.

I knew that he was a big Cubs fan. I just haven’t heard that much about his personal life or personal acts of kindness. I don’t know if I could trust someone who tries to kill those cute little gophers. ;-)

Thanks for the laugh.

Oh....NOW you’ve done it!

The IRS is gonna demand $5,000 in taxes from that poor woman.

I’d pay $15,000 not to hang out with Eddie Vedder.

It’s Al Roker, the weatherman that used to weigh 500 pounds before having liposuction surgery.

While Murray did a class act, your comment was not.

I’ve always thought Bill Murray to be a very decent fellow, as well as amazingly funny. With this act, he confirms his essential decency (even if he is a Cubs fan).

Kudos to you, Bill!

Think "Pearl Jam" and then forget about it.
