Chicago Cubs' Wrigley Field covered in snow is more beautiful than anyone would have expected

Wrigley Field, home of the Chicago Cubs, is perhaps the most storied of all baseball stadiums left. It is rivaled, according to most fans, only by Fenway Park.

First, those stadiums have stood forever. Wrigley Field has been the home of the Cubs since 1914 and Fenway has hosted the Boston Red Sox since 1912.

They both have unique aspects to them that make them stand apart, too. Fenway has the Green Monster and Wrigley has the outfield ivy. They're also some of the oldest ballparks as most teams have built new ones or moved since these parks opened.

Wrigley has an argument to be the best place in baseball, and this picture might cement its case even further.

It doesn't snow during baseball season very often. Sometimes in northern locations, snow will fall during spring training and the early days of the season, but baseball is a warm sport. It happens mostly during warm months, so snow doesn't happen all that often.

While it would probably impact play, that is still a bit disappointing because of how beautiful it makes the field look. Wrigley Field here looks so beautiful covered in snow and as if it was made specifically for a holiday movie.
