Here comes \u2018Da Pope.\u2019<\/p>\n

Chicago-born Cardinal Robert Prevost was\u00a0named Thursday as the first ever American pope<\/a>\u00a0\u2013 and folks in the Windy City are having a blast over it.<\/p>\n

\u201cFrom now on, all communion wafers\u00a0shall be deep dish<\/a>,\u201d one commenter quipped on X.
\nChicago sports fans wasted no time jumping on the bandwagon.<\/p>\n

\u201cNeed to know if he\u2019ll be a Cubs Pope or a White Sox pope,\u201d another X user said, while yet another offered an addition to the beleaguered White Sox stadium fare.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn honor of Chicago\u2019s own Pope Leo XIV, the White Sox announce the new \u201cWhite Smoke Shake\u201d that will be served in a commemorative pope hat.\u201d<\/p>\n
