Graig- A quick story about that 1936 World Series. My Grandfather who died in 1968 was a huge Giants fan, he loved King Carl.

During the series he was on jury duty. The jury was hung with one lady refusing to go along with the others. My Grandfather liked to bet a little and was anxious to get to the local cigar store where his buddies were to listen to the game and drink some beer.

At some point early into game time he stood up and shouted and the woman to "bleep or get off the pot." The foreman reported him to the judge who dismissed him from the case with a $5.00 fine. You have to respect a man with priorities!
