Weekend Hot Clicks: National Beer Day; So Long, Andy
Thanks, Andy
Andy Gray, of Hot Clicks, Swimsuit and Vault lore, bid adieu to Sports Illustrated on Friday after a 13-year run. You all owe him a big hug. It was a pleasure Andy and best of luck on your next adventure.
National Beer Day
Saturday is National Beer Day, a holiday that dates back nearly 100 years. Here’s how to talk beer like a pro so you don’t sound like an idiot before you’re drunk. ICYMI: Jason Day hit a shot into a fan’s beer cup at Augusta, and this Giants fan’s foul ball whiff led to a massive beer explosion.
Unbelievable

WrestleMania 34
SI’s Justin Barrasso wrote the biggest WrestleMania preview you’ve ever seen. Seriously, it’s almost 10,000 words. And here’s a defense of the fans at the post-WrestleMania Raw that bring the heat each year.
