10 Cent Beer Night Was a Mistake!

hey honey grab the kids how about we go catch a baseball game tonight if that night was 1975 in the Cleveland Indians hope that it wasn't 10-cent beer night for the fans the next morning this is what the box score in the paper Red Indians in the night 10-cent beer night promotion fans erupted from the stands at this point and charged Rangers right fielder Jeff Burroughs both benches cleared in support fans had continually disrupted the game by running onto the field and throwing firecrackers into the dugouts game forfeited to the Rangers two runs four hits zero earned run two left on base Rangers five Indians five things backfired and that's what's happening on this season of lash from the past [Music] [Applause] [Music] yep things backfire welcome back to last from the past season 5 episode 6 a lot of episodes this is this season is historical backfires we've gone all the way back to Genghis Khan we've done recent as the MBA a B a merger this one's a more recent one 1975 it is a doozy of a story everyone needs to know this story especially baseball fans or just history fans I guess so I'm excited about it little little groundskeeping first if you're listening on the regular old podcast app that we've been posting these on for the last two years you're golden thank you for returning and listening and checking us out we do have a new YouTube channel that just last from the past so if you wanted the video version if you wanted to see Jake and I do this it's completely backlogged correct we have every or almost every single episode up on the last from the past YouTube channel and this episode if you're watching on the john-boy media YouTube channel this is baseball related so I thought a lot of the john-boy media YouTube channel people would get a kick out of this story and if you want more laughs from the past episodes subscribe to the laughs from the past channel I'll put a link below BAM Jake how you doing I'm good James I'm good yeah I think it's what gave me an early laughs on this one is you know we have done some stuff you know the fall of ancient Rome gang is gone and is you know taking over of you know the largest basically what civilization there ever was and now I like that we can bring it back to 10-cent beer night in Cleveland because yes it may be slightly different historical impacts but historical impacts nonetheless yes keep hitting that mic it's right in your in your hand motion yeah well you know you know I've got these damn excited hands how's the groundskeeping going on your end good just woke up excited this is actually I pivoted to this story because I know we both woke up early to record this and I was like I want something that's gonna be fun so this one's fun we like fun and there's some background here I don't know if the article I have which is written by Frederick C Bush I like quoting whoever writes the articles it's actually like sabermetrics commerce some like that but some background that I know is that Cleveland at the time all the factors just got shut down it was like high unemployment people like turning to booze and drugs and sadness and I think that plays a big factor in the story so I don't know if the writer says it but I just wanted to put that in there the river was literally on fire at times in Cleveland because there was so much like debris and disgustingness that might not be the scientific reason but that's what I'm gonna say okay and yeah I think I think the other thing if you're not coming from a baseball background I mean we're talking to 70s we're we're talking a an an interesting era of American history you know whether that's political for you for me it's disco and and I think that's interesting because Jim I know there's another Fiasco which I don't know if we're gonna talk about at the end but I think it was in the 80s they did a disco is dead party at one of the stadiums and I think it's just as crazy as this story ends they had to shut down the game basically so I think it's funny that we were in this time of you know sports are kind of taking off and becoming even more popular and they're trying to figure out the marketing and promotions that work for specific things and there's gonna be some misses along the way and I think ten cent beer night and death of disco fall under that yeah so the interesting thing about this story is ten cent beer night as we'll learn when I once I get into the article this wasn't like the first time it ever happened it was somewhat common back then but there's all these other things that were going on between these two teams and this game that made it crazy so I'll just let's just get into it all right let's do it fans of baseball in the nineteen seventies Shirley recalled the jingle that touted baseball hotdogs apple pie and Chevrolet they go together in the good old USA you like that jingle it's not pen they brought it back in our lifetime right baseball hot dogs apple pie and Chevrolet cuz I know it yeah I'm trying to think if that's the order cuz something sounds slightly off but no it's it's the right idea that's what the article says baseball hotdogs apple pie and Chevrolet I think maybe the new version changed it a little bit yeah that's what I'm saying okay well that memorable advertising campaign debuted in 1974 the same year that a number of major league clubs believed that beer also mixed so well with baseball that it should be offered for 10 cents per cup on select occasions when a common-sense limit of two beers per person was set and fans were given chips that were good for the purchase of their discounted beers as was done by the Minnesota Twins and Milwaukee Brewers then 10-cent beer night was simply a nice price break for fans so you would get a chip and that would get you two beers for twenty so yeah you'd get a chip or you get two chips and that was basically saying your beer that's normally I don't know a dollar at the time we're trying to picture what the price of beer was in 1975 at a stadium but yeah if you gave them that chip that's what you were supposed to exchange for a 10-cent beer which we can we already know how bad of an idea this is because not only do you get chip redistribution throughout the stadium you get people with fake chips you've got beer vendors that don't care about chips so yeah I mean this this is a concept that up top when they have this original meeting for $0.10 beer night they're like yeah we can contain it by giving people chips and anyone that's been in a situation where you know a lot of drinks want to get drank that's not going to stop the people at all yeah well they changed it to a six beer per purchase limit okay so without any over oversight to keep fans from returning repeatedly so you could walk up give them sixty cents get six full beers yeah drink them and then get right back in line and get six more beers for 60 cents starting to think I figured out the problem - plays the Cleveland riot in full perspective it is helpful to know of events from the Rangers owned 10-cent beer night in Arlington Texas on May 29th in which the Indians were the opponent in the bottom of the fourth inning of that game Texas's LAN Lenny Randall slammed his shoulder into the midsection of Jack Bromer Cleveland's second baseman in an attempt to break up a double play went in hard fine Indians reliever Milt Wilcox retaliated in the eighth inning with a pitch that actually passed about six inches behind Lenny Randall's head so what did Lenny Randall do to retaliate - that he laid down a bunt to the first base line and when Milt Wilcox went to field it just ran him over now that's baseball I've never seen that never even thoughts never met you thought wrong move never even thought that Wow for good measure he also tried to but first baseman John Ellis square in the nuts when they got to first well Jimmy tap who cares we got a we got a competitor on our hands Tiger out of the cage Lenny Randall I got a I got a look of a picture of Lenny Randall I mean anyone who bunts down the first base line just to tackle the pitcher after he throws at your head some good [ __ ] he was a lefty so I made it easier ok Wow yo Lenny Randall was the same guy who blew the ball remember that old blooper where the third baseman is blowing the ball foul like he gets on his okay he lays on the ground and starts blowing it that same guy cool Lenny Randall at which point fisticuffs ensued in our kitchen and that's obvious once order was restored on the field some overzealous Ranger fans showered the Indians players and manager Ken a sperm on tea with food and beer as they returned to the dugout so his 10 cent beer night there the fans were a little rowdy there's a fight on the field so they start throwing things onto the field beer and hotdogs and stuff like that that's up it does adds up since the Rangers were due to play in Cleveland a mere six days later reporters asked Rangers manager Billy Martin if he was concerned that the Indians faithful might respond in kind Billy Martin joked they don't have enough fans there to worry about that that was certainly true on an average night in Cleveland in 1974 85 percent of the seats at home games were unsold only a couple thousand people came but June 4th would be different in response to the Texas fans actions and Martin's insulting quip Pete Franklin host of Cleveland's Sport Line program spent an entire week on the radio whipping Cleveland fans into a frenzy against the Rangers oh wow is that like fear-mongering going on basically is that not sports radio host dream that someone tells you someone tells your city that you don't have enough fans and now you're talking to your city you hear what they said about us do you hear at that scumbag Billy Martin said about us five days straight on the radio knowing they're coming back to town I need you guys to be loud we gotta show him what Cleveland is all about he lost his voice a lot well you know I'd I'd give a big speech about the kind of impact that we need to bring to this this upcoming game but I know there's not anybody listening to this so why even bother there's not fans in this town back in fine no for the weather hmm Pete Franklin good job I looks like such an old-time radio guy classic old-time radio guy like the bad hair the big glasses oh it's great you had that recipe for retaliation and on top of that the Indians brass added a 10-cent beer night of their own which attracted 25,000 spectators so fine we have to play in front of your crowd who's drunk off 10 cent beers enjoy this you're gonna have to play in front of our crowd who's drunk off 10 cent beers and guess what we're in the middle of a recession and we got a lot of people that don't have jobs and are angry yeah also another factor they say is that by the June 4th college had been out in Cleveland in May in May and Arlington College hadn't been out so they're much bigger College Kraft it was closer to the summer yeah and I mean this is I mean not only is this college bait now like obviously but this is also again going back to the 70s in that time period and it does factor into stuff like podcasts and internet not being around I don't know if you lived 3-4 hours out side of Cleveland and you had some college buddies in a car this was the kind of thing that you you tell stories about you'd be like yeah a 10 cent beer night in the car so we all hopped in we got crazy we threw hot dogs at the players crashed in the car drove back in the morning like that is I feel like that's half my dad's stories well your dad would love this the sixth beer limit fell by the wayside early that I was saying that about the two beer limit never mind a six beer limit as demand exceeded supply at the concession stands and the Cleveland Indians made the decision to just allow fans to have their cups filled directly from the beer trucks that were parked behind the outfield fences times are better the outfield beer trucks were manned by young girls dress scantily clad right and after a little bit they just said [ __ ] this and left yeah so now it's just fat free beer night that's great current I'm currently on the side with the fans I'm also on the side with those young girls oh yeah that everyone has done everything right except the Cleveland organization for not like tripling their security you're soon I hope not gonna be on the side of the fans no no I think I think this comes down pretty quick a significant number of fans quickly became inebriated from what ya could have done that and their actions soon overshadowed those of the players on the field the fact became evident after the Rangers Tom grieve opened the scoring with the one out solo home run off Fritz Peterson it wasn't Fritz Peterson the one that wife swapped who might have been I was gonna say it's a name I'm familiar with I don't know if it's due to baseball reasons or not Fritz Peterson was the Yankee he swapped wives with the Yankee wow this is post wife swap for its Peterson with his new wife so anyway he gives up a home run at the top of the second inning second inning we're in the second inning where I was gonna be like fifth or sixth oh no we're just getting started as the next batter Jim Fregosi stood at the plate a woman ran into the Indians on debt deck circle bared her breasts to the crowd and then attempted to kiss crew chief Nestor [ __ ] who was umpiring at third-base I do like that they emphasized it was the crew chief it wasn't just a knee out fire out there I'm sure she was going for top brass yeah I don't I don't want any of these other guys all right give me the crew chief why they even though that cares about that so all right so she tries to kiss the crew chief Nestor [ __ ] néstor probably like that oh yeah the Rangers took a two nothing lead in the top of the third on consecutive one out doubles by Jim Sundberg and Caesar Tovar with the only disruptions being occasional firecrackers that were set off throughout the game sure he comes the third inning and you're like alright guys I guess we're just gonna have to get used to the firecrackers those ain't stopping ya and that's that's tough and you know if you've ever wondered you get on an airplane or you go to an event and they say no fireworks I think we're gonna find out why soon yeah I mean it seems pretty pretty obvious however the fourth inning and the Rangers third run spurred one more fan nudity grieve belted his second homer and as he rounded third base a naked man slid onto the field and slid in to second base now we have a picture of that man running he's got really nice legs Jake it's the first picture he's not naked he's got one boot on his one sock I believe I wonder if like he was getting like butterfingers like I gotta get naked for a streak and then the sock he was about to take the sock up here they're like you're at a time doing is okay or maybe he's got a really gross right foot he who didn't want anyone to see or he knew he was gonna slide and he you know he nicked up his foot before yeah you're right he does you know for a picture taken from that time period it's a good picture for him yes his physique it looks like is there a body image the the lighting is hitting him really well so yeah good for him they never caught that guy they said is what I read he just slid in a second any left that's fine play ball I think they're like well there's no there was only 50 security guards for 2500 which is nuts yeah so that guy is naked running on the field signed second base like do you want to catch him I think you just say like [ __ ] that yeah he'll find his way although exhibitionism was at becoming a theme the only hostility the crowd had displayed through the first three and a half innings was to boo every Ranger player who came to bat that's normal I'm surprised that they were even focused on like when a new player came to bat like they were that tuned into the actual gameplay not just like yep drinking and partying through the third inning I know I know you're right but I mean that's not that hard to do the first sign that the mood was turning ugly occurred in the bottom of the fourth inning when lee ron lee laced a liner back toward the mound that hit texas starter Fergus Jenkins in the stomach as Jackson as Jenkins lay on the ground in pain Cleveland fans began to chant hit him again harder hit him again harder hit again harder what's wrong with that that's just human nature 101 it's a tough chant I mean it's better than gladiator days or like kill him kill him by the way Hall of Famer Fergie Jenkins and I think that's that's actually a funny and important note to this that like you know this is someone who's considered baseball royalty you know who will will look back on records at how good of a pitcher they were and you know how we view athletes now and again flashback to 1975 Fergie Jenkins is laying on the ground writhing in pain and there's you know 2,500 drunks screaming what were they screaming we want pain hit him again harder hit him again harder it's a kind of hitting harder that's that's what the drunk Cleveland fans were bringing to Fergie Jenkins see like so many words like nowadays I feel like it'd just be again again yeah right in like how I don't know who you know who who translated that you know was it one guy who talked to a reporter and his three friends were yelling that that's usually how it goes whenever like reporters say loud boos here for drink holler stand it's like five guys were booing crazily yeah anyway yeah dude Oscar gamble was also in this game like this wasn't it reads like a triple a double a independent ball college game major league players Jenkins remained in the game but he gave up singles to the next two batters Charlie spikes in Oscar gamble that resulted in Lee's scoring the Indians first run Lee made it to third on a close play on Spike single and Martin had come out to argue that call the fans emulating their peers in Arlington pelted him with their beer as Martin who has never one to back away from confrontation blew kisses to the stands and we have a picture of that as well Billy Martin just blowing kisses to everyone pretty crazy really good I mean the fans were on top of the dugout how to be scary to be in the dugout Billy Martin blowing kisses to a drunken angry horde got credit to Billy Martin there's no security its little nuts they're throwing things at you yeah you're allowed to be like get me out of here neither team scored in the fifth inning but two men jumped the outfield wall dropped their pants and mooned both the crowd and the Rangers outfielders yeah eventually the stadium people had Indians radio announcer Herbst score implore the fans to not run on the field but his pleas fell on deaf ears as fans continued to run across the outfield one point I read they were just playing the game with people running on the outfield why they didn't stop the game for him anymore it's pretty good like nor normally you see people get uncomfortable if there's like a plastic bag blowing in the outfield but for this game on this day yeah there's just two flowing right now let them be they'll get back you know the happy gilmore scene where shooter McGavin is like go back to your shanties yeah that's this like that's very much this thank you very much this this is golf this is a professional game stay in your seats in the sixth inning Toby hurrah tripled to drive in grieve who had singled and forgo see who had doubled sending grieve to third this gave the Rangers a five to one lead the Indians said about recouping those two tallies in the bottom of the frame brohamer Brougham brahmer let off with a double brohamer let off with a double and scored when Lee was safe on first baseman's Mike Hargrove fielding error Lee advanced the second base is the run scored Jenkins retired spikes but then was accidentally spiked by Lee in a play on a gamble groundout jenkins injury forced him from the game and steve folk halt took the mound George Hendrick singled against folk halt to bring Lee and cut the margin to 530 so we got a close game going on here the next time Hendrick came to bat in the bottom of the ninth he started a game-tying rally with a one-out double off foe call a sperm on T that was the Indians manager sent three consecutive pinch hitters to the plate edy Crosby rusty Torres and Alan Ashby rusty Torres and Alan Ashby great names each registered a base hit good managing yeah with Hendrick scoring and Crosby single John Lowenstein who lofted a sac fly to center field that tied the game and the Indians had the potential winning run on second base with two outs at that point it became obvious that many of the fans cared more about carousing than about the game yeah at some point their lose interest yeah you know that was that was before the game how many people do you think pissed themselves in the stands at this game you got twenty five thousand you got free beer it's a twenty five thousand or twenty five hundred because there's been a couple numbers set twenty five thousand okay I think there's 2,500 people well you said 2500 before so I didn't know 25,000 then yet people are peeing themselves I think only the passed out people again there's there's such little order here that I don't think it's a big P on yourself I just think it's a big P anywhere oh yeah Wow how many people do you think how many what do you think the percentage was of peas in bathrooms versus peas wherever they were like you know just an empty seats or in the corner I would put it at 75 25 25 yeah my I was thinking 70/30 peas peas not in bathroom 70 yeah because why would you yeah there's no hooker sucks if you're a female attending the school you're in a new world here once more two men ran onto the field and one of them attempted to take right fielder Jeff Burroughs cat burrows kicked at the man and stumbled to the ground Martin thought that burrows had been taken down and he led the Rangers out of their dugouts bat in hand to come to his players rescue now there's a picture of this as well and it looks like out of an old musical fight all the players running to the outfield with bats in their hands yeah Jimmy this is easily the best picture of all the pictures and I I don't know how you're how you're gonna edit this up but I mean this is what needs to be shared because it's it's unbelievable it's unbelievable it looks like yeah I mean you said it looks like it's out of a musical or I was gonna say like it looks like it was out of a real war if guns didn't exist but like bats were the weapon like that's what it really looks like it looks like a Brigade heading out with their bats and it's a again it's it takes you back and this picture really puts you in this timepiece cuz it's like whoa yeah if you go back to there's a picture of them when they get to the outfield or another picture in the outfield and it just you can see all the stuff on the field yeah they were lying a lot of stuff got thrown on that field so they were so the Rangers run out to the outfield with their bats in hand to come to the players rescue as the Rangers charge so did hundreds of fans and the melee was on a spur Monty now led the Indians into the fray to help the Rangers and off the fan so now you have two MLB teams against drunken fans that's crazy that the Indians were like let's go help the Rangers out this is [ __ ] ya mean again and that's a good sign of how how truly rowdy it was that they were like you know we have to save them I would love to know what Pete Franklin said on the radio after this like we showed them or okay we think we took it a little too far no we'd Pete Franklin the radio guy was saying we did the best job a group of fans has ever done you think he called the Indians [ __ ] for not being on the fan side like turncoats Indians turned their back on us all we were doing was defending them yes sorry for trying to help win the game yeah maybe I don't know that's tricky well that fracas ended the game néstor old Nestor was like his games over 9 to nothing forfeit Rangers win I don't know why they get 9 to nothing that's just a standard forfeit score I guess so I don't know well I didn't just leave the score the same maybe there's something about players coming on the field or something and you that was the old rule I don't know I get the forfeit I just don't understand why the score goes from like 5 to 4 whatever it was 2 9 nothing no rules the security force of 50 Stadium officers and two off-duty Cleveland police woman police man and woman were overwhelmed by the flow of fans that had to call for assistance 20 additional patrol cars responded in the meantime players and fans alike were being pummeled Cleveland pitcher Tom Hilgendorf suffered the worst injury of all the players when his head was cut by a metal folding chair that was thrown at him he was a picture of that I'm holding his head cop letting him out geez burrows jammed a thumb and [ __ ] the umpire Nestor was also hit by a chair in a cut on one of his hands as a picture of that as well yeah the the umpires walking off the field beat up is actually sad yeah because that's when it's it's I don't know this is a fun story you're like oh my god like these guys these guys had nothing to do with this and they're getting thrown out and stuff like that's that's awful I agreed that's the one picture the fight with the players it all looks like coal but the umpire walking off bleeding from the face he's like ah [ __ ] this pretty messed up pretty messed up situation Frank firown' the chief of Cleveland stadium security said that 12 people were arrested and put the scale of the riot in perspective by certain we would have needed 25,000 cops to handle this crowd one cop per one person well I think you're overdoing that but I would hope you're cops aren't that bad or just like a couple guns I don't know you see the picture of the one Rangers player with the glasses on that looks like Drew Carey yeah that's that's Burroughs I believe that's Burroughs yeah so he's the one that uh he got his hat stolen not wearing a hat in the picture he looks like Drew Carey he's got a little Drew Carey vibe going and yeah man I mean you and I you know again this is normally history but we're also baseball guys but it's it's funny here in baseball names because I want to say I'm wondering if that's Sean Burroughs dad Sean Burroughs was a major leaguer for a while yep it is Sean Burroughs dad so I mean imagine and that's that's the other thing that I've been grinning about because as the umpire picture is sad and the player stuff I mean just looks wild I mean how much these people love baseball not the fans like the players like knowing that you're gonna go out in a professional field and you could be attacked by a mob there's a lot of love of baseball so I that's that's kind of my win I'm taking from this story yo Jeff Burroughs won the MVP in 1974 so yeah I mean he hit 41 home runs in 1977 16-year career 355 career on base percentage 795 o-p-s so he had some talent and and that's the thing that I'm trying to put into perspective if you are one of our someone that knows baseball but like picture this story and okay Jeff Burroughs is Mookie Betts yeah like like it's it's insane to trying to kind of draw these parallels where you can because it's I mean it doesn't seem real no nester charlyk was irate after the game claiming the fans were uncontrolled beast I've never seen anything like it except in a zoo those are controlled piece in a zoo yeah those are control DS so that's gonna yeah I should have said like the jungle or something yeah never been to the jungle alone yeah they were uncontrolled beasts I've never seen anything like it except that time I went to that place where they have the control beasts yeah that make sense Nestor they left the door open at the zoo okay Martin extolled the Indians action asserting I am very proud of the Cleveland players they saved their lives those fans just couldn't control themselves after drinking that beer amen the game marked the first forfeit in major league since September 30th 1971 four years ago that's not I was expecting a crazy date it's four years prior was the last four foot when's fan when fans had stormed Robert F Kennedy Stadium during the Senators last game in Washington DC before they moved to Texas and became the Rangers well that's kind of a cool that's cool that's admirable there's one Rangers there the Rangers are the recurring theme in all of this Wow the New York Yankees have been the beneficiary in that game both the Rangers hoorah and the Indians dick bossman dick bossman [ __ ] dick bossman what do they mean I'm gonna look him up had been with the Senators at that game in Boston Cantrell at the event saying the fans in Washington were not mean they were only looking for mementos this was mean ugly in a frightening crowd yeah the they stormed the last game at Robert F Kennedy Stadium because they wanted to be part of history and grab some dirt and the game result probably didn't matter at all grab a chunk of the fence or something how about Dick Bosman being part of both yeah well and that's obvious that is obvious Dick Bosman 11-year career as a pitcher 3 6 7 RA 82 wins 85 losses tough tough better than I so much how do you like this in terms of backfires hmm so I mean who's okay so who's the technical backfire on just the Cleveland Indians the Indians organization or event staff like whoever whoever said six beers per order is crazy I think I've got it I think I've got it there was someone in the marketing and events in front office that was like no guys like people aren't animals this is gonna be fine we'll have a couple of the beer trucks with some of the beer girls if we need more and it's it's gonna be a good time and they were adamant about it they're like man you know trust the people man and then this happened and that person became a laughingstock forever so that's who the biggest backfire is on I got the biggest backfire on whoever decided not to up security and and counter reps whatever you want to call them at the foods that can confuse food one of my blanket on concessions up the employees for security and concessions when you go from 5,000 to 25,000 they didn't up any of that yeah what are you thinking 50 security guards there's pictures like with 20 fans on top of the dugouts while the games going on yeah I think that might even be the same guy I've got I've got the events guy sticking up like we don't need extra security we don't need we don't need extra concession people like people are there just be slightly longer lines for people to get there couple of and they love baseball they're just gonna be watching the game yeah Trust trust the game on this one what if someone excuse me sir what if someone brings firecrackers that's not gonna happen what if a man who what if they start shooting their firecrackers into the opposing dugout okay well now you guys are just being oh all right all right banana lands oh good yeah let's just what if what if they uh what do they bring a bomb actually that's like a concern these days which sucks yeah back then nothing nada what do you think you would have done in ten cent beer night it depends what age I am is 18 year old Jake streaking I mean college years Jake is around the field I'm making contact with the field okay and that's obvious yeah you want to be part of it I mean after that I mean maybe up to 25 so maybe it's an 18 to 25 range I feel like I need to get involved outside of that I think I'm like oh this is scary I'm watching like I'm finding a 90 section just drinking and sitting and watching I've been a little bit all flower at stadiums I love people watching sure and it sounds like a good time there's no way I'm going on the field at any age too much of a [ __ ] then and now I think in college you end up on there you end up Wallflower and like by the actual wall yeah maybe I'll just stand like right by the foul pole and watch ya once once there's enough people on the field you're like okay yeah just go take a look yeah cuz you don't want to be at that event and say I didn't go on the field I'm also pissing myself and throwing up probably probably yeah I can see if I was like an Indian sand I could see me being the guy like I'm trying to watch the game a little whoo that's also true there is I was big like I want to watch the game if you're one of those 5000 people that would normally be at the game oh my god Jim no it's really good in this no the that the I don't know if this is a not a prototype or a stereotype but know how there's like the husband that books a vacation to somewhere beachy that oh he also happened a book it during spring break oh yeah and then you have a family with all the spring breakers yeah there's it's kind of that image but with the traditional baseball fans like you know should we get to a game tonight honey I feel like we just haven't taken the kids to a game in a little while let's go tonight yeah that's good that's that's pretty funny what if what if Nestor [ __ ] wife was there he gets flashed he the girl kisses him she's pissed then later on he gets beat up I hope Nestor didn't have any family and friends watching him hump that night yeah and I I doubt he did cuz that's a really weird thing that's asking your friends or family to come watch you work that's a little odd I mean if it if you work at a professional baseball game I'm gonna say it happens often yeah I don't know being an umpire they travel a lot but if they come to your hometown like all right if they're in our hometown maybe but I mean they'd I'm assuming they traveled every week kind of like the players did but yeah well hope nesters family wasn't there maybe Nestor had a girlfriend in every city he went to he was the crew chief after all he was the crew chief did you see and this is the last picture in the slideshow there's a woman being pulled off the field by the police who just wanted to give out free kisses I think she's the one that tried to kiss Nestor yes she's the one that flashed everyone and and tried to give out free kisses but uh yeah you don't really want to be fly like I'm interested if I'm being flashed by her for sure but I can go for every human on the earth yeah it's not an exciting flash no no look how happy she is though good for her oh yeah she's drunk man happiness is key it is there's one fan his shirt is so weird he got off he's all cut up in the face but he's got cut up on the eye yeah that shirt just looks like he owned that from the 1950s until 1975 yeah it's funny cuz we do have a lot of images of drunk people that's a drunk picture yeah that guy that guy that guy is hammered this guy he's not in the college student section this guy's the guy that got laid off at the factory yeah this guy this is the guy that got riled up by the sports radio guy and the security guard hold them back looks like Babe Ruth wait dude knows you're telling me those Texas guys said we're not as good a fans as them I'm gonna get angry drunk the two cops or security guards one looks like Babe Ruth a good Babe Ruth and the other is so old like this this old guy counting as one of the 50 security guards no he doesn't now you see why they said they needed a body on a body eighty year old men trying to wrap up a riot like that dude that dude hung it up after this let's go through some pictures I'll put them on the screen on the YouTube so this picture has a fan on the ground and I don't know who this player is number 21 for the Rangers he's throwing shots at the dudes head oh yeah we've we've got a fan that's just getting beat up and Matthew McConaughey in the background I want to find out who that player is Matt might be Hunter Pence look at that guy they don't know that's baseball-reference doesn't have like uniform numbers it's tough there's one other picture that is Hunter Pence in the background there yeah and there's one other picture of like I think it's that same fan and oh you think it's a before-and-after yeah I think you think it's I think we're looking at the before now yeah for sure so number 21 is this dude on the on the right this short dude look at the cop in the background here he's wearing dark sunglasses a night game he doesn't count can't see yeah he's alright so we're down to 48 cops what all right that ends this one historical backfire thank you guys for listening like I said if this is the first

That's crazy. Can only imagine what a 10 cent beer night would look like in Chicago. Might be the worlds longest snake if they could get away with it

I want a drunk history episode about this

Did jomboy actually make a full length documentary?

[u/Aphrobang]

The absolute best part of this is that they never caught the streaker with one sock on. How do you strip, get onto the field, run across it, somehow get back off the field, and then somehow (still naked) blend into the crowd all without security reaching you. Impressive as fuck

[u/Goooldschmidt]

Of course it happened in Cleveland

The most insane part was that when planning this event everyone in the meeting room agreed that allowing people to buy up to 6 beers PER PURCHASE was a good idea.

Like no way allowing a stadium full of revved up fans to buy that much beer at any time won't backfire at all. At that point just let the fans pay 10 cents and stick their heads under the keg tap until they cant drink anymore.

Bad take Jomboy.
