Ending droughts can make you thirsty.

Cubs president Theo Epstein ditched his stoic persona — likely thanks to some bubbly — and celebrated like his Cubs players and the fans of the team did on Wednesday night.

Epstein gave (at least) two wonderful interviews (we’re looking for more) after the Cubs won their first World Series in 108 years, beating the Indians 8-7 in 10 innings.

The 42-year-old interrupted one interview by general manager Jed Hoyer to announce he was going on a month-long bender. Epstein did another with FOX 32 in which he recalled the dread of watching the Red Sox blow Game 7 of the 2003 ALCS and how he reacted to some premature congratulations on Wednesday night.

Warning: Graphic language

He also got to soak comedian and legendary Cubs fan Bill Murray with champagne.
