Someone correctly predicted Wednesday’s crazy Game 7 ... in 2014
In case you were unaware of the world of Twitter, please know this: each tweet has a time stamp.
This usually doesn’t mean much, but in some instances it can be very, very interesting. Case in point: there was this tweet from a user named GIO (handle: @RaysFanGio) on Nov. 4, 2014.
2016 World Series.

Cubs vs Indians
And then the world will end with the score tied in game seven in extra innings #apocalypse
Game 7 of this year’s World Series did in fact feature the Chicago Cubs and Cleveland Indians. And, yep, the score was tied after nine innings, which forced extra innings.
If you’re reading this, then it wasn’t the apocalypse. Yet. But as I type this, maybe the end really is at hand.
Still, you’ve got to give this guy credit. That’s a pretty darn specific tweet.
He tweeted the reason behind the prediction (it had to do with Chicago Cubs manager Joe Maddon):
I tweeted it the day Maddon signed with the Cubs. https://t.co/LKJ8BmdXLG
