William Wrigley was a soap salesman at first and started giving away chewing gum with each purchase. The gum became more popular than the soap so he started focusing on that. He got rich I tells ya, RICH!
So rich that he bought the Chicago Cubs in 1921 and commissioned the Wrigley Building (on Michigan Ave) the same year.
Shrog and Bob discuss this bit of history in front of the Wrigley Building with uproarious results.
