It was 1930. With baseball on the rise once again, a group of businessmen came together with an idea. They were huge baseball fans, and men who wouldn’t let an opportunity go to waste. They would offer free entries into the teams in their league, and would allow anyone and everyone to play. The men first thought of this project as something to make a little bit of money from and have a little fun with, but it grew to something much, much more exciting. The owner of Chicago’s club, Ryan Robblestock, was the biggest baseball fanatic of them all, and would put it all on the line to have his team win. He didn’t care about what anyone on his team looked like or acted like, neither did he care about age or wealth. Unlike the rest of the businessmen, he would manage the team. Ryan wanted the hardest working, best baseball players he could find, and he would do anything to get them on his team. Robblestock decided to call his team the Bruins. He thought a bear would make a great mascot. A new ballpark was built for each team, most were average, clean, small ballparks, but that wasn’t Robblestock’s style. He didn’t care about how clean or modern the park was, so he just decided to make it huge. It was sure to be popular for years to come. The businessmen weren’t going to waste the opportunity of making big money off a huge ballpark, so they approved and advertised it all around Chicago.
