Meet Mike Sergo: He's a diehard Chicago Cubs fan, who has served as a Milwaukee Bucks team employee for 20 years. Like many Cubs fans across this nation, when the team made it to their first World Series in 71 years, he tried to get a ticket to watch them play at Wrigley Field, but was unsuccessful.

One of his coworkers, Daniel Marks, a basketball database manager for the Bucks, started pooling some money together in order to get him a ticket. After a few members of the staff agreed to put some money into the collection, Bucks head coach Jason Kidd said that he would buy the ticket. According to Daniel, Mike will be going to see his Cubbies at Wrigley Field for Game 5 on Sunday.

Marks captured the moment when Sergo found out that he would be going to game and shared it on Instagram:

Shout out to Kidd and everyone in the Bucks organization for making this guy's dream come true.
