Netflix has the documentary about Dock and there is the portion that deals with the LSD no-no.

"Oooh. I just made a touchdown."

I've been a Pirates fan since 1970, at the same time I became a Chiefs fan.

The first baseball game I ever went to was the Pirates vs Phillies in 1971. Dock Ellis vs Chris Short. It was a Saturday afternoon and a neighbor, who was a Phillies fan took me and his son, my friend to the game.

I went to the Vet at least 30-40 times over the years when I lived at the Jersey Shore to watch my Pirates play the Phillies.

Phillies fans are the WORST

I was still in utero.

I wasn't due for another 10...

If Ellis isn't bullshitting it's a crazy story, the few times I've tried LSD it was hard to play grand theft auto let alone pitch a ****ing baseball

The MLB won't let any surviving footage of the game to be shown because its so embarrassing it is.

Allegedly.

The greatest achievement in sports history, bar none.

And I thought LeBron had a chance at some shit.

Bingo.

And the stands were full that night, of rocking horse people eating marshmallow pies.

Sick reference bro.

The Luckiest in sports history if true.
