1969: Harry Caray, play-by-play broadcaster for the St. Louis Cardinals, is fired by team's owner

[@Famijoly]

Harry drinking a can of Schlitz for this on-camera interview was the closest thing to him giving the middle finger to Anheuser Busch.

Hard to complain as a St. Louis fan, but damn we missed out on more years of him.

The famous interview of Harry Caray after he got fired by Gussie Busch, drinking a rival beer after all his years of selling Busch. No, he wasn't fired because he wasn't a good beer salesman. The real reason was never revealed, but there were plenty of rumors.

Sleeping with the Owners wife will get you terminated every time.

@@darrenlivingston2550 The daughter-in-law of Gussie Busch, to be exact. Harry pretty much admitted years later that it was true.

Did Harry Carey predict the AB he is drinking Schlitz beer to get even what a great baseball anounther 😊

[@Tommyofthntn]

He allegedly had an affair with the owners' wife. That's more likely the reason he was let go.
