Cookie Monster delivered an iconic performance of 'Take Me Out to the Ball Game' at Wrigley
Cookie Monster has a very busy schedule: When he's not eating cookies, he's trying to find cookies to eat.
On Thursday, he found some time in his packed agenda to show up to Wrigley Field to sing during the 7th-inning stretch.

Normally, the letter "C" is for "cookies" in Cookie Monster's taxonomy. On Thursday, he made an exception and allowed the letter to represent the Cubs. And he was even able to keep his mind off cookies enough to sing about peanuts and Cracker Jacks.

There's a long history of iconic musical performances at baseball stadiums. The Beatles at Shea Stadium. Elton John at Dodger Stadium. Cookie Monster at Wrigley Field.

Eric Chesterton is a writer for MLB.com. He is an appreciator of the stolen base, the bunt against the shift and nearly every unconventional uniform design. He eagerly awaits Jamie Moyer's inevitable comeback.
