IN the early days, beer commercials could be live and you would see 
Brickhouse's color commentator taking swig of Hamm's beer.  If I recall 
they used room temperature beer  so that there would be a better head on 
it.  One time I was watching and this guy thought that the camera was 
off of him so you got a great shot of him spitting the warm beer out.  
Wasn't Brickhouse the guy who used to say, "we don't care who wins jut 
so its the Cubs"?
