Charlie Sheen to hang out with 'Major League' fans at MGM Northfield racino
- Oops!Something went wrong.Please try again later.
For Northeast Ohio this may be an inspired way to lead off the start of the baseball season.
MGM Northfield Park presents “An Evening with Charlie Sheen & Screening of ‘Major League,’” at 7:30 p.m., April 28 at the Center Stage.
Given the popularity of David S Ward’s classic baseball film about Cleveland's baseball team and Sheen’s character of Ricky “Wild Thing” Vaughn, this could prove to be fun.
Released in 1989, the film often lands in the Top 10 of best baseball movies made. Will Leitch of mlb.com ranks it No. 10 (too low) on his list. The rottentomatoes.com composite has it listed at No. 11 with an 83% fresh score (still too low). What do movie critics know anyway? Javier Reyes ranks it No. 5 (probably just right) on justbaseball.com.
Therefore, Jobu would be pleased.
As is the norm in this capitalistic society there are several presales beginning for those with “access” to get through beginning Thursday at 10 a.m. Tickets for us peasants go on sale Friday at 10 a.m. at Ticketmaster.com No prices were available.
