On MASN now: Fantastic Fans Night, '88

[Moose Milligan]

A 1-23 Orioles team.  Cartoon bird hats.  Orange pullover jerseys with elastic waistbands.  Stirrups.  Ripken and Ripken.  Murray.  Jay Tibbs...ok, getting carried away.

Oh, best of all...Jon Miller and Joe Angel.

Thanks, Milligan.

This is an article about that night, from September of 1995.

[Why Not?]

Proud moment for the city of Baltimore.

I don't think that would happen these days.  Not sure what's changed over the years but I don't think OPACY would sell out if the Orioles started off 1-23.

I was at that game.  The crowd was fired up.   Jay Tibbs is a BEAST!
