Just in time for the baseball season. This Rheingold Beer ad, as voiced by Mets announcer Bob Murphy, had to have been seen by me countless times when I was a kid. Probably ran constantly during Met games.
But, my family was a Schaefer household. Just so you know.
Dinner last night: French dip at the Arclight.

What? No Rheingold jingle?
Ah, for the days when a ballclub and its beer were inseparable. Mel Allen sold more Ballantine than anyone in history, and the Miss Reingold contsst drew more votes than any election except the president. Somewhere I still have my '63 Met yearbook with Casey winking at Miss Reingold.
But I, too, come from a Schaefer (quart bottles, deposit) family.
