Summary
Temperatures were rising in the summer of '74. Watergate was roiling and Nixon was glued to the hot seat. Severe inflation was burning down the economy, while the Cuyahoga river was on fire…for the 13th time. Hank Aaron broke The Babe's home run record and the most memorable thing about the Oscars was the streakers. But it was the Cleveland Indians, hosting yet another 10¢ Beer Night, that also featured streakers—which turned out to be a real riot! This is the story of the greatest basebrawl of them all.
“What could possibly be embarrassing about a film depicting a promotion making beer a little more accessible to our customers?”
— Paul Dolan, owner of the Cleveland Guardians
