This 10 minute piece was on ESPN yesterday. It was on the Bill/Mike Veeck "promotion gone bad" at Comiskey Park, 30 years ago. "Disco Sucks" night.
Great footage of one of the most bizarre scenes in sports history..and gotta love those old White Sox uniforms from the 70's..

At the 6:27 point in the video-

I wasn't at that game, so I'd appreciate it if you would quit spreading rumors.
