The ESPY’s are celebrating its 25th anniversary with the 2017 edition hosted by Peyton Manning and it’s off to a hot start.
Early on in the program Manning took a shot at Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook to get things going.
But the real fun came at the hands of the Chicago Cubs.
Chicagoan Nick Offerman helped present the award for the “Best Moment” given to the Chicago Cubs for their 2016 World Series title.
Go, Cubs, Go!

But Offerman wasn’t the only one on stage to help celebrate. Bill Murray accepted the award and cracked open a bottle of champagne while in the process.
Then it was David Ross’ turn to shine. Acting as a janitor moping the stage, Ross joined in on the fun as the three drank champagne to toast to Cubs legends like Ernie Banks, Billy Williams, Ron Santo and more.

Game 7 was a moment Cubs fans will never forget, especially with the 2017 struggles the team has faced.
