Bob Newhart raises the 'W' with help from Don Rickles
Bob Newhart has been waiting and waiting -- as have many Cubs fans -- for a World Series championship.
The 87-year-old Newhart has been enjoying this run and on Tuesday was enjoying dinner as the Cubs forced a seventh game of the World Series with the Cleveland Indians.
Newhart, from Oak Park, Il., had some help in raising the "W" flag after the Game 6 victory.
His dinner companion was none other than fellow comic genius and legend, Don Rickles.
In case you were wondering, that's 177 years of youthful brilliance at the table.
The fella at the next table was nice enough to help me hold the flag after the Cubs won!!! Go Cubs and fly the W!!#GoCubsGo #FlytheW #Game7 pic.twitter.com/QJVaPgOTDH
