Of all the wacky promotions baseball has used in their storied history to bring fans to the ballpark, Disco Demolition Night will forever live in infamy. The brainchild of Mike Veeck from the White Sox front office and a local Chicago rock and roll disc jockey, would declare war on the popular genre of disco music. For 98 cents and a disco album, fans could get a ticket to watch both games of a Tigers/White Sox double header. Between games, the plan was to take all the records collected at the turnstiles, and blow them up in centerfield with dynamite. What could possibly go wrong? #SteveDahl #GerreMeier #WDAI #WLUP #MikeVeeck #BillVeeck #ComiskeyPark #RonLeflore #KenKravic #JimmyPiersall #HarryCarey #DiscoDemolitionNight
