The Texas Rangers have been involved in some raucous riots and fights. There's that insanely cool Nolan Ryan time beat the hell out of Robin Ventura and that time Rougned Odor absolutely clocked Jose Bautista. There's the riot that started in 1971 when the Washington Senators announced they'd move to Arlington to become the Rangers, which ended in a forfeit. And then there was the infamous 10 Cent Beer Night in 1974, which ended in a riot. The event was meant to be a fun promotion, but it quickly turned into a disaster. Fans got out of control, causing chaos and destruction throughout the stadium. The Rangers' management was forced to intervene, and the game was eventually forfeited. The 10 Cent Beer Night remains a dark chapter in the club's history, and it's a reminder of the dangers of getting too carried away with promotions and fan engagement.
