  • the only thing I can think of is that scene in "bowling for columbine" where the bank is giving away guns for opening an account...
  • I remember watching something in a baseball broadcast a long time ago about "Disco demolition night" on Comiskey Park, which turned to be a very,very bad idea. Found a link with more info: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disco_Demolition_Night
  • Fiction: The Seinfeld episode called "The Nap" George Costanza has a bed fitted into his desk so he doesn't have to drive home to sleep. One day George Steinbrennar's grandkids come over and George's cover is about to be blown by the rug rats, so George calls Jerry and has him pretend to be a terrorist saying that he'll blow the stadium up if his demands aren't met. He demands that the NY Yankees give out fitted caps to the first 1000 fans who attend the game that night. George is found hiding under the desk by Steinbrenner and explains that he was defending himself against a bomb blast. He saved his job. http://www.tv.com/seinfeld/the-nap/episode/2392/summary.html?tag=ep_list;title;151
  • The Atlanta Braves, back in the pre-Bobby Cox days, used to have ostrich races before the games. I also remember one time when Ted Turner still owned the team that he said the team was so bad that he would give away free admission until they won another game. I think they lost five more before they finally pulled out a win. Crazy!!
