All the focus of my inspiring documentary “The New Bleacher Bums” has been focused on the #1 Drunk Cubs Fan Colleen Henneman. It’s been clips and random postings about her thoughts, her dreams and her life. But…(cue music)…her life includes other lives.

Enter Colleen’s boyfriend Todd. Well, they choose not to use that word. Instead, they exist as just random Cubs fans that share a house. Todd & Colleen represent the couple that loves Cubbie baseball above all else, even themselves. (continue that music)

Todd Voorhies is a well known regular around Wrigley Field. He knows every nook and cranny of the neighborhood. He doesn’t have season tickets, nor does he really know what is happening with the team. Others can handle that part of the sport. Todd will handle bumming around Wrigleyville.

Get to know Todd. If you don’t know him already:

Of course, Todd is not real. No, I mean he’s pretty close to the real thing, but a character played by Sandy Marshall. The New Bleacher Bums is a web series produced by Schadenfreude. More to come.
