Why They Cancelled Ten Cent Beer Night | Tales From the Bottle

Good things happen when drinks are cheap. That is, if you're a handsome, roguish troublemaker like Qxir - if you're a baseball player for the Texas Rangers in 1974, maybe stick with Carlsberg.
"Ten Cent Beer Night was a promotion held by Major League Baseball's Cleveland Indians during a game against the Texas Rangers at Cleveland Stadium on Tuesday, June 4, 1974.
The idea behind the promotion was to attract more fans to the game by offering 12 fluid ounce (355 ml) cups of 3.2% beer for just 10 cents each, a substantial discount on the regular price of 65 cents, with a limit of six beers per purchase but with no limit on the number of purchases made during the game. During the game, fans became heavily intoxicated, culminating in a riot in the ninth inning which caused the game to be forfeited due to the crowd's uncontrollable rowdiness and because the game could not be resumed in a timely manner."
