‘Cheers’ Actor George Wendt Passes Away @ 76
George Wendt was born on October 17th. That’s the same as fellow Chicago native Steve McMichael, whose death I similarly connected to Pope Francis in my post from last month.
The two men were born exactly 108 months apart. That’s a significant number to the new Pope, who was also born in Chicago, as I highlighted in this decode.
Cheers / Chicago
George Wendt was best-known for his role on the long-running television sitcom Cheers, where he played a character named Norm Peterson. Peter was the name of the first Catholic pope.
Wendt’s middle name was Robert, which is the first name of the new pope, Leo XIV.
George died at age 76
Pope Francis was elected at age 76.
The show took place in Boston, and it stayed true to that by using a bar in Boston now known as Cheers Beacon Hill for its exterior shots:
Prior to 2002, Cheers Beacon Hill in Boston, Massachusetts was known as the Bull and Finch Pub. That’s how I remember the bar, as my parents took me there on vacation back in 2000.
George Wendt was born in Chicago, Illinois – a birthplace he shared with Pope Leo XIV:
That final episode aired on May 20th, or 5/20, which is the same date that George Wendt died:
Thomas Kershaw is the name of the man who founded Bull and Finch Pub.

Jorge Bergoglio was the real name of the previous pope. He was a span of 288 days after his birthday when Cheers first hit the airwaves in 1982.
Charles Bulfinch is the name of an architect born in Boston, Massachusetts. It’s possible that his last name was the inspiration for Cheers Beacon Hill‘s original name, which was the Bull & Finch Pub:
The Bull & Finch yields Latin gematria of 421.
Pope Francis died on April 21st, or 4/21:
