Description
From living in a box under the streets of Chicago for 7 years to attending over 3,000 Chicago Cub baseball games and being featured on ESPN, FOX, Howard Stern and in the pages of Sports Illustrated, NY Times and the Japan Nikkei, Ronnie 'Woo Woo' Wickers has become one of America's greatest baseball fans. WooLife chronicles Ronnie's journey from an abusive childhood on the south side of Chicago to his adopted family in Wrigley Field. A young Ronnie becomes inspired after his grandma takes him to a Cub game in 1947 to see Jackie Robinson play. What Ronnie discovers in the bleachers of Wrigley is a foster family of Cub fans and players that awakens his spirit and saves him from homelessness. He finds his souls music by rejoicing 'Cubs Woo, Cubs Woo' in a way that inspires some of baseballs greatest players. WooLife starts during the 2000 season as Ronnie follows his dream of being recognized by the Cubs as the first fan to sing "Take Me Out To The Ballgame." Faced with obstacles from Cub's management, the fans decide to buy Ronnie a new smile to help improve his chances of his dream coming true. WooLife is a testimony that the human spirit can overcome and conquer the most grim of circumstances simply by recognizing the gift of being alive and the passion of truly believing in something.
