Also, don't forget that people routinely smuggled alcohol INTO the stadium. As was mentioned in the video, an umpire was almost hit in the head with a gallon glass wine jug that had been smuggled in. My uncle took me to a lot of Atlanta Braves games, and he loved sitting in the "picnic area" right down the first base line. It was just a fenced-in area with a few picnic tables like you'd see in a park. My uncle liked it 'cos they were the cheapest tickets and you were also in the middle of foul territory, so odds were good a foul ball would land near you. In any case, seems like there was always a church group at one table, and next to that you had a table with four young male friends in sleeveless t-shirts that somehow managed to sneak 48 beers in their cooler into the game (above the sodas and sub sandwiches, which were allowed).

I was gonna mention this too. They were letting them bring explosives in the park I doubt they cared about alcohol. The browns played in this same stadium and there were always bottles of liquor being passed around the dawg pound. I'm sure plenty people tailgated first and showed up to the stadium hammered also.

This was crazy! I was 13 years old listening to these games on the radio. After the 'basebrawl' in Texas, the Cleveland manager gave an interview saying "just wait 'til they come to Cleveland later in the season". Billy Martin, the Rangers manager told the media, "it won't matter because nobody will show up to watch the games in Cleveland". So they came up with the 10 cent beer idea. These were great photos, I can still name most the Rangers players in this video. Thank You for this reaction!!

I was stationed at U.S. Naval Communications Station, Londonderry, Northern Ireland in 1970-1971. At the enlisted men's club the going price for a beer or a mixed drink was 25-cents. Given the pay scale of the that time, many sailors found it difficult to make their paycheck last the two week period. The civilian management of the club was a bit concerned about the lack of patrons on the night before payday. It was normal for a Happy Hour each day for an hour starting at 6 p.m., during which all drinks were 5-cents. To entice a patronage for the night before payday, the manager extended Happy Hour but with one caveat. After one hour, the drinks would remain at 5-cents as long as no one went to the head (the loo). Once that happened, the price went back up to 25-cents. The intended results by the manager was achieved. The crowd was good as long there were nickel drinks. Whoever gave in and was the first to go to the head were ridiculed by their shipmates. This went on for a couple of months or four pay cycles until the medical officer got wind of it. He went to the manager and told him he could no longer have an open ended Happy Hour until someone relieved himself. The reasoning, he explained, was that the manager was not aware of what sailors were willing to do for cheap beer and booze. That they were at risk of actually tearing their bladders apart.

I was at this game with my dad. I was 9 and we were there with a few other dad's and their sons. We left in the 4th after the first streaker hit the field, so we missed all the real violence. Those girls were high schoolers, so probably 16 or 17. The fireworks were about the size of cigarettes, which is how guys got them into the stadium: in cigarette packs. Also, you should realize that the old Cleveland Stadium sat 80,000 (and the Browns, Cleveland's NFL football team would routinely sell the place out). So 25,000 meant the place was still less than 1/3 full. So by the 2nd inning, people had already moved to the seats closest to the field, irrespective of what tickets they bought. By the third inning more than half the people there were falling down drunk. The group my dad and I were with had been sending one guy to get 6 beers and then all the guys would have one, so by the fourth, they'd only had 3-4 each. Some guys around us had had 10 or 12 by that time. The game was a mess, the fans were a mess, and the stadium was a mess by then end of it all.

I grew up and spent a good chunk of the 90's living and working in a summer resort area in the Midwest US. On the weekend following Labor Day weekend (Labor Day being the traditional "end of the season"), a bar I frequented would do Penny Draw Night. If you could get to the bar, which was generally 5-10 people deep, you could get a beer for 1/100th of a dollar. It was a mess, but great fun. And although it was a mess, the bartenders did certainly earn quite a bit of cash. Hundreds of locals, many of whom were also bartenders and waiters and other service providers in the area, throwing money at them was pretty profitable.

If you get a chance to look up "10 Cent Beer Night- A Look back" on youtube, it goes into a lot more detail and has video of people who were there including the fan that started the riot on the field.

Getting in a batting cage as an adult who's never swung a baseball bat? Wear a helmet 🤣

Everyone fails to point out that Cleveland had ten cent and five cent beer nights before this without incident. They also had them after this (with restrictions) and no incident.

Every video on Office Blokes Try should involve beer.

10:20 "I presume in America you have to be over a certain age to serve alcohol." - Not sure about the 1970s, but from the late 80's until now you have to be 18 to serve alcohol and 21 to pour alcohol. So, a waiter who is 19 can serve your beer or cocktail or glass of wine to your table, but if you order a bottle of wine (to be opened table-side), someone who is 21 would have to come out and do that for them.

I'll bet those girls were under 18. Remember, this was 1974, a lot of things have changed since then. The stadium management probably told those teenage ushers to go out to the beer truck and start serving beer because they were afraid of a riot if the crowd was forced to stand in line for too long. Of course, that didn't work. I don't' know what the legal age to serve beer was back in '74, but I wouldn't be surprised if there wasn't any age limit set at the time.

I don't know about 1974, but nowadays, fans at professional baseball games are not allowed to buy beer after the seventh-inning stretch.

You guys have reacted to this about Cleveland Indians fans and also "The Game the NFL Wants you to Forget" aka "Bottlegate" involving Cleveland Browns fans. I am curious to know your opinion on the city of Cleveland and their sports fans after all that haha.
