I have no idea how many people on Earth are obsessed with both Hallmark movies and the Chicago Bears, but I can tell you I’m a proud part of that esteemed group. This week, I discovered I’m not the only one either because after the Monsters Of The Midway announced they’re partnering with Hallmark for an original movie, tons of fans hit up the Internet to make some version of the same snarky joke.
If you’re not from the city of Chicago or a Bears fan, let me catch you up on some important backstory. The team is moving, probably. The Bears have played at the historic Soldier Field on Chicago’s waterfront since the early 1970s, but in recent years, they’ve been feuding with the city over the lease, the parking situation and upgrades they would like to see since the Chicago Government owns the facility. Those talks have gone poorly, and now, the team is threatening to either move across the border to Indiana or move to Arlington Heights in the Northern suburbs. Either way, the team would be about thirty to forty-five minutes outside the city, and fans who want to see them stay put in Chicago are not happy.
