This fan's reaction when he catches Ian Happ's home run is legendary

This could be the most intense fan reaction you will ever witness.
When the Cubs defeated the Mets 8-3 on Tuesday night, Ian Happ smacked a solo home run off Josh Smoker to extend the lead to 7-2 in the bottom of the seventh inning. If you're wondering if anyone interviewed him in the dugout, the answer is yes. Tommy La Stella was there to make sure he got all the quotes he needed.
Just beware of that boom mic:

Before the dugout interview however, this Cubs fan had the most extraordinary reaction to catching a home run you will probably ever see.

There's excitement, and there's what this guy did. And his excitement is on another level. We think it's safe to say this ball made his night, and his reaction made ours.
