The Bronx Is Burning meets Chuck Klosterman in this wild pop-culture history of baseball's most colorful and controversial decade

The Major Leagues witnessed more dramatic stories and changes in the '70s than in any other era. The American popular culture and counterculture collided head-on with the national pastime, rocking the once-conservative sport to its very foundations. Outspoken players embraced free agency, openly advocated drug use, and even swapped wives. Controversial owners such as Charlie Finley, Bill Veeck, and Ted Turner introduced Astroturf, prime-time World Series, garish polyester uniforms, and outlandish promotions such as Disco Demolition Night. Hank Aaron and Lou Brock set new heights in power and speed while Reggie Jackson and Carlton Fisk emerged as October heroes and All-Star characters like Mark The Bird Fidrych became pop icons. For the millions of fans who grew up during this time, and especially those who cared just as much about Oscar Gamble's afro as they did about his average, this book serves up a delicious, Technicolor trip down memory lane.

Cute, with effective self adhesive
Color: Gold, Color: Gold
These are super cute. I’ll start with the packaging: The kit comes all together in a plastic pouch. There are three sheets of gold stud stickers, and a separately packaged pair of application tweezers. The sheets are individually packaged with a thin cardboard backing to keep them from wrinkling, and they themselves are stuck onto a transparent sheet of plastic. They are secured with tiny plastic double sided stickers on the back, similar to double sided tape. Note: sometimes the stud pulls right off the sticker, but you can grab that bad boy gently with the tweezers, peel it off, and stick it right back on without losing any adhesive property. I decided to just experiment with them to see how they work. I was able to move the studs from one part of my face to another, testing out what different piercings might look like, and on the third location change I just left them there and they stayed perfectly fine without falling off. So don’t let the occasional sticker pulling away from the stud concern you; the self adhesive is actually pretty legit! I know I look like I haven’t slept in three years, but including a picture after I had already moved them around a few times so you can see how they managed to keep their stickiness. I plan to do an elaborate makeup look and utilize them for it tomorrow so I might come back and add cooler pictures of that as well!

Chewing pups love them.
My 8 mo Morkie loves them . The other two won't touch them . They're heavier than I expected but Belle doesn't seem to mind that. Great for dogs that like to chew!

Meh..., I'll stick to fave pig ear chews
Only 4 for $6, idk these don't last long. I wanted to try them because my dogs love being spoiled but I think I'll stick to pig ears at a discount from Petco. They are very hard, some chews crumble or soften as the dogs knaw at them during the day. However these chews didn't last longer than 10 minutes compared to actual no rawhide alternatives I have used. These didn't do that. No upset stomach so that's a plus. The smell was similar to pig ears also, texture was different. No slimy residue w/ it unlike with the regular 100% pig ears. Helped with plague build up but there is still plague on insicor tooth. Probably won't buy again, meh.
