Actor John Cusack’s article for a Chicago newspaper has got him into trouble after readers responded with mails accusing the star of a string of embarrassing mistakes.
John, who grew up in the city, published his first column in the Huffington Post Chicago on 14 August, narrating his memories of the area and his love of the local baseball teams, the Cubs and the White Sox. However, readers have accused him of misspelling the names of three Cubs players, as well as famed playwright Eugene O'Neill, plus other factual errors.
John has also described how he took the "express train" to Wrigley Field, the Cubs' stadium, when in fact there has never been an express train service to the ground! He then goes on to describe the poverty of his childhood, insisting he had to "scrape together $2.50" to go to a baseball game. But a source close to the star snidely remarked, "Cusack grew up in a massive house on Sheridan Road. It's slightly disingenuous to say he had to 'scrape' together $2.50. I'm thinking that wasn't an issue."
