At the time I was only about 6 So no I don't remember it but I'm glad for YouTube so I was able to see it. What were the outcome of your wagers if you remember?

Vaguely remember it when it happened.

Still not as bad as Disco Demolition or 10 cent beer night.

Hell - remember quite a few bat day giveaways that in hindsight it’s amazing didn’t cause riots.

You’ll notice soccer matches never feature fan giveaways of weapons like baseball - just another example of how the world is a bunch of pussies compared to ‘merica.

This was less than a month before Cal Ripken beat Lou Gehrig's games played streak on September 6, 1995. I remember this because the date of the Dodgers/Cards game reminded me of when I was teaching night classes so a few weeks later I couldn't see the Cal Ripken game.

I remember Ripken’s streak - just because if there would have been a rain out - it was going to happen in Cleveland and me and the old man had tickets for that game.

Great game that night and a better night out on the town afterwords.

Damn - how is it I can’t remember shit from day to day - but that game and night I remember vividly - including walking down onto the field at Muni Stadium.
