Today in 1979, Disco Demolition Night at Comiskey Park goes off the rails when fans storm the field as local DJ Steve Dahl detonates records in the outfield. Chicago police arrest 39 and the White Sox forfeit the nightcap of a doubleheader with the Tigers.
30 years ago today, at WCW Bash at the Beach, Hulk Hogan turned heel and was the third man in the nWo.
It's considered to be one of the best heel turns of all time and a pivotal moment in pro wrestling history.
Happy Bobby Bonilla day to all who celebrate!
