Interesting note about disco demolition night, Michael Clarke Duncan when he was a young man was in attendance for that.

[@LuisA-fc3ox]

Billy Martin was quite a character. He managed the Yankees in the 70’s and 80’s. His fights with his owns players and management are historic.

[@brent4723]

As was his fight with a marshmallow salesman in Minnesota.

[@bobwallace9814]

When the Yankees were in town to play the Rangers, Billy and several Yankee players would always go to a topless club called Lace not far from the stadium after the games. He had a legendary temper and got into a fight one time inside the club with the big bouncers. They took Billy out a backdoor into the parking lot and smacked him around. When all was said and done, skin from Billy's ear was found stuck to the brick wall.

[@downrighttt]

@@brent4723 I always thought my dad and my grandpa were fucking with me because in my brain there was no way a marshmallow salesman is a real thing. I was floored.

[@jeffslote9671]

He was also involved in the pine tar incident

[@nsnick199]

Fun fact: The Rangers first baseman who was in this video talking about the 20 pounds of hot dogs thrown at him is Mike Hargrove, who went on to become the manager of the Cleveland Indians in the 90s.

[@davidpost428]

He also briefly managed the Seattle Mariners.

[@evanmedcraft8929]

The video didn't mention that the while the fans were storming the field and both teams were fighting for their lives, the stadium organist was playing 'Take Me Out to the Ball Game"

[@DNReacts]

That’s wild 😂😂

I think you mixing that up with Disco Demolition Night as Harry Carey was singing “Take Me Out to the Ballgame” while the fans were rioting on the field

[@cteal2018]

Wouldn't be surprised if Billy Martin (Texas Manager) had a dozen beers himself durring that game.

[@stevedietrich8936]

Cleveland Municipal Stadium was colloquially known as "The Mistake by the Lake". The Cuyahoga river runs through Cleveland and empties into Lake Erie. It has caught fire (from pollution) more than once. The 1970's were a different time.

[@NickKaminski1980]

10 cent beer nights weren't uncommon in the MLB back then. The difference was this was an unlimited purchase opportunity, with 6 beers at once. And it was.Cleveland in the 70s. Their river was literally on fire.

[@DNReacts]

Yeah it was very poorly timed!

[@marcpower4167]

They did pull off another ten cent beer night a few weeks later, but they were better prepared, they had additional staff and security personnel working and set strict limits of no more than 2 beers per purchase and no more than 6 purchases. This time it went off without a major incident.

[@adamplace1414]

Streaking with your dad, to be fair, sounds MORE like the behavior you'd see in UK football stadiums than US baseball stadiums.

[@DNReacts]

Yeah this is fair enough 🤣 Appreciate the comment!

[@johanna0131]

Growing up in the 70’s was a crapshoot…Lawn darts, seatbelts optional, lethal fireworks, but it had its good points as well. 😀 Maybe you guys should check out Billy Martin. He was quite a character, and a big part of baseball during that time. Another really fun reaction boys! Love your commentary! 😂

[@OaterMcBoats]

Life long Clevelander here... Thank you guys for doing this reaction. This happened well before my time (I'm 34) but have heard about this night plenty of times but never really looked into it. Fascinating watch. Fun fact - the first baseman who had all those pounds of hotdogs thrown at him ended up being the Indians manager through the 90s which was arguably their best run as a team in their history. Hargrove also ended his career as a player for the Indians. Weird how it all came full circle. Keep up the videos! Maybe punish us Cleveland fans more with a reaction of The Drive or Red Right 88 or Bottlegate since the NFL season is closing in on us.

[@TXnine7nine]

Between 10¢ beer night and Balloonfest ‘86 Cleveland sure does know how to screw up an event. 😂

[@farleytravis89]

The Dollop is an amazing and hilarious podcast that covered this game on one of their earlier episodes. Highly recommend it.

[@tervalas]

The impetus for the first fight was that the runner going to first base laid out the pitcher when he wasn't blocking the base path. The runner doesn't have a right to body clock another player whenever they want.

[@christined6321]

[@BluesJammer69]

I was 15 and had just went to my 1st Ranger game just a week before this game... can still hear the anouncer's frantic call. crazy

[@KevinQuinn81]

The initial brawl started because the batter was running to first base and about to be tagged by the pitcher but he absolutely CLOBBERED the pitcher (presumably to get the pitcher to drop the ball) but it was SUPER excessive even by 70's standards. He ran inside the baseline and leaned in with his shoulder and elbow and sent the pitcher flying, which prompted the first and second baseman to come down and fight him, which prompted the Rangers to charge out of the home dugout which was right there in front of first base. It was a combination of all these things that led to that getting out of hand so fast. Billy Martin, the Rangers manager that night, the one that blew the kiss to the crowd and ordered his team to charge the fan with bats...hoooooooooooo man what a character. Very much a doing-things-his-own-way hothead. Can't recommend enough that y'all learn about him. Especially his relationship with then-Yankees owner George Steinbrenner when he was Yankees manager, then fired, then Yankees manager, then fired, then Yankees manager, then fired, then Yankees manager, then fired, then Yankees manager, then fired again. Seriously, dude was fired 5 times by Steinbrenner.

[@theblackbear211]

Billy Martin - the Ranger's Manager at the time, was a legendary scrapper. Never one to de-escalate a situation, his "taunting" of the crowd was completely in character. No limit 10 cent beer!? Oh, yeah, what could go wrong? Worse than that - even when they saw things going haywire - management did nothing.

[@yorickisdead]

There has to be a video out there just on Billy Martin. One of the all time personalities in baseball.

[@Mkproduction2]

We did Nickle Beer night here in Charleston with our MinorLeague Team(Pirates then, Riverdogs now). It was a DOUBLE HEADER... By the third inning of the Second game People were passed out all over the park, in the bathrooms (which were 3rd world nasty in the old ball park), The Concession Stands, On the Metal Bleachers with their legs and arms hanging down like a Panther in a tree). STILL the beer guy came around with trays of nickle beer. The Charleston police brought 2 "Paddy Wagons" to the park and as people would Wobble out to their cars and try to drive away, they would arrest them.. I read the next day that over 200 people were arrested out of a crowd of 4000... maybe. I was lucky enough to have ridden a Bicycle to the park that night.... Most vomit that I've EVER seen in my life. The WHOLE park smelled of old beer and Puke for a Month.... 😅😂 Our new park is one of the best in Minor league baseball and looks out over the Ashley River... And smells like green grass and hot dogs... Rick Charleston SC

[@lindaeasley5606]

As a measure ,in 1974 the average price of a beer at a baseball game was 65 cents. Adjusted for inflation , 65 cents is the equivalent of $3.50 today

[@supersasukemaniac]

The 10 cent beer night promotion is why, prior to the Pitch Clock being introduced, teams would stop serving beers at the 7th inning.

[@Jeff_Lichtman]

It was Billy Martin who blew a kiss to the crowd. Given who he was, they were lucky he didn't go into the stands and start punching people. Martin was infamous for his thin skin and bad temper. Please watch a video about Disco Demolition Night.

[@Titus-as-the-Roman]

This, with hindsight was absolutely hilarious, living in Ohio at the time and knowing Cleveland anybody could have told you this was a Bad Idea. Cleveland in the 70's was abysmal, the industrial Rust-Belt was being felt hard in Cleveland. It got so bad the Cuyahoga River that flowed past Cleveland actually caught on Fire, which they had a damn difficult time putting it out, now how polluted does a River have to be to actually catch fire ?

[@mjj3132]

"Now the Lord can make you tumble And the Lord can make you turn The Lord can make you overflow But the Lord can't make you burn" (For those unfamiliar, from a Randy Newman song, "Burn On", about the Cuyahoga River incident, very famously used in the opening of the movie "Major League").

Billy Martin, the Rangers manager, was known throughout his career (Yankee player, Yankee manager, Oakland As manager--and an excellent manager, too) for being feisty, combative and even getting into fist fights. He was fearless--trying to fight Reggie Jackson, a great Yankee player when Billy was the Yankee manager, in the Yankee dugout. He is worth a video of his own by you guys.

My father taught at Youngstown south highschool in the 80's and 90's. Mostly a black student body they never had a baseball team until 87 or 88 they had enough kids to try it! First ( and only) game was against Youngstown Rayen, in the 3rd or 4th inning a fight broke out BOTH teams grabbed bats and that was the end of the baseball team at Youngstown south

[@gracielynn9623]

Just think… That 60,000 beer total was only up until about the fourth inning when the girls abandoned the trucks and everybody got free beer. That doesn’t count all the beers consumed from the fifth inning onwards. And yes, it really was two teenage girls… Believe they were about 14 or 15 serving the beer.

Mates…You should really check out another Sports Promotion Debacle from 1979 at the Chicago White Sox, Comiskey Park … The White Sox GM Bill Veeck long considered a master promoter, invited Steve Dahl ( Chicago Rock radio shock jock) to have a promotion there between games of a twi-lite doubleheader with the Detroit Tigers called Disco Demolition Night, there was a 98 cent price for admission (resulting in 50,000 people in attendance mostly teenagers & twenty somethings) where they literally blew up a huge pile of Disco Records on the Field, It turned into a complete Riot, with more than 7,000 teens storming the field stealing the bases and tearing up the field… forcing MLB to cancel game 2…..It was the most surreal experience of my life…Good Luck Jjh
