42 Years Ago

On August 23, 1964, teenagers went crazy as British Beatle Mania kicked off with a concert at Shea Stadium. A band of Beatles impersonators performed in the right field corner during every half inning break meaning none of our favorite games were played and we didn't learn any Spanish from Professor Reyes.

It was also Polish Heritage Night at Shea though, meaning a pregame polka concert, which included a polka version of Roy Orbison's "Pretty Woman."
