Big League Anniversary
I saw this on Yahoo! Sports. Apparently, last week the baseball-themed chewing gum Big League Chew celebrated its 30th anniversary.
No one in my family smoked or did anything with tobacco, so any resemblance to chewing tobacco was lost on me as a child. However, the gum was always one of my favorite purchases from the little league concession stand. That and Lik-M-Aid.
Yea that gum was a lot of fun but sometimes I’d play with a Wonka’s gobstopper in my mouth just to look like I had a big gob of tobacco. Probably not the safest or smartest thing to do, but what the hell.
