Just your typical day at the ballpark: First you see a pitcher smoke a fastball down the middle of the plate. Then you watch a speedy runner burn up the base paths. Finally, you see center field explode in a fireball!
Okay, so it’s not exactly your average trip to the old ball game. But that’s the whole, record-breaking idea behind “Disco Demolition Night" -- the ill-concevied event that saw vinyl records detontated, liquered-up fans riot, Comiskey Park decend into smoldering shambles, the Chicago White Sox dealt an automatic loss and the demise of dico hastened. Listen, laugh and learn all about it.
