Interesting memory at least involving the trolleys...back in the '84 World Series the city had set up a large screen in Hart Plaza where you could go down to watch the games. In what turned out to be the last game, a couple of us went down there to watch, but the city decided not to set it up that day for security reasons. So there's a ton of people milling around Hart Plaza just before game time looking for somewhere to watch the Tigers maybe clinch. Some guy pulls up on Jefferson right next to the trolley tracks in one of the popular custom vans of the day, bed in back, carpeted walls, fuzzy furry interior roof liner...the whole works. He opens the side door facing Hart Plaza and sets a 12" black and white TV on top of his van as a crowd starts gathering. Ended up being hundreds of people crowding the sidewalk and Hart Plaza straining to watch this little TV...we were standing on the trolley tracks and had to make way every time the trolley came through on it's way down to the RenCen and back. Clever entrepreneurs would run down to liquor stores, by as many 40 oz'ers they could pack in a cooler and sell them to the crowd at $5 a bottle! Near the end of the game, cars were just abandoned on Jefferson, the trolley obviously stopped running as all hell broke loose. A bar across the street down towards Brush set up speakers outside and tracked "Dancin' in the Streets" over and over! A great day to be downtown, though it did start getting a bit rough later on...
