Twice the usual crowd turned up to see the Cleveland Indians take on the Texas Rangers on June 4th, 1974 - drawn in not by the baseball match, but by an innovative promotion: for just 10 cents, fans could grab 10 ounces of beer. The lines never stopped, as fans circled back, drank in line, and kept the buzz going. Tensions were high, as this was a rematch with the Texas Rangers following a brawl. Fans cheered when a Rangers player got injured, and started throwing trash, rocks, and batteries onto the field. Then came a full-on invasion: around 200 fans, some armed with chains and chunks of stadium seats, rushed the pitch. Players fought to protect each other. The umpire, bleeding from a thrown rock and narrowly missed by a knife, finally called it: game over. Cleveland forfeited. In this episode, Arion, Rebecca and Olly explain how Cleveland's ill-advised 10 cent beer promotion came to be; unpick what the baseball players were thinking, as they were dashed back to a hotel for their safety; and marvel at the gratuitous nudity on the pitch, in the golden age of 70s streaking… Further Reading: • ‘A mistake by the lake: Remembering the 10-cent Beer Night riot' (Sports Illustrated, 2013): https://www.si.com/mlb/2013/06/04/mistake-lake-remembering-10-cent-beer-night-riot • ‘10 Cent Beer Night: An Oral History of Cleveland Baseball's Most Infamous Night' (Cleveland Magazine, 2024): https://clevelandmagazine.com/in-the-cle/sports/articles/10-cent-beer-night-an-oral-history-of-cleveland-baseball's-most-infamous-night • ‘10-Cent Beer Night: A look back' (Sports & Extras Network, 2014): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CFtR38Mlscc Love the show?

It's opening week and the Browns and Cowboys will face off at Huntington Bank Field on Sunday in a marquee timeslot with most of the NFL world watching.

The Browns trimmed their roster to 53 players on Tuesday afternoon and the first thing that grabbed everyone's attention was the decision to keep four quarterbacks. It added fuel to the fire that one of them could be on the move and it's at least in play that it could be Jameis Winston. Mary Kay Cabot, Ashley Bastock and Dan Labbe started Tuesday's Orange and Brown Talk podcast by discussing the possibility of moving Winston and if it really is in play, if it would be a repeat of what they did last year when they handed the backup job to Dorian Thompson-Robinson and how long the Browns could let this play out. Then they go over some of the other areas of the initial 53-man roster and what stood out to them. They talk running backs and D'Onta Foreman's future and talk about Andre Berry making tough decisions on his draft picks. We were Voted best podcast by Cleveland Magazine readers!
