Kansas City Royals: 2015 World Series Champions.

Chicago Cubs: 2016 World Series Champions.

They are two World Series wins many never would have imagined to happen, let alone back-to-back. But Adam Harter did.

"I was more relieved last night when they won. I was just excited that it came true," the Olathe Northwest graduate told 41 Action News.

Two years ago, when the Royals lost to the San Francisco Giants, Harter tweeted two bold predictions. He tweeted the Royals would win in 2015 and the Cubs would win in 2016.

On Thursday night, the baseball fan's second prediction came true.

"I felt [the Royals] had a good chance to come back and win it the next year. Then, I saw that the Cubs had signed Theo Epstein and Joe Maddon, and I believed that those guys would lead the Cubs in the right direction," he said. "I firmly believed it when I tweeted it and all the way through that they were both going to win."

Next year Harter believes the Boston Red Sox will win the World Series. He's hoping his predictions will go 3-0.
