Two Strike Noise - A Baseball History Podcast
Episode 14 - Bill Veeck and Disco Demolition
07 May 2019
The greatest promoter baseball had ever seen was Bill Veeck. You think you know more than the manager? He invited the White Sox crowd to make all managerial decisions for a game, and the Sox won! If he had his way, the Philadelphia Phillies would have been baseballs first integrated team. The only color Bill saw was green. He might have seen red though after baseball's most infamous promotion, the ill fated Disco Demolition. Cheap tickets, cheaper beer, explosives and plenty of disco records. What could go wrong? We also talk about the greatest World Series moments form the past 30 years, ranked.
