Great Nickel Beer Night Riot

An infamous event that took place at Cleveland Stadium in 1974. Like most of the sport teams in Cleveland, the Indians sucked and they needed a promotion. So they offered beer for a nickel. Great plan right. So the fans got drunk and started a riot. The Indians ended up forfeiting due to the craziness. You know you're from Ohio if you've heard of this.

Over 25,000 people came to see the Indians on the day of the Great Nickel Beer Night Riot. Too bad nobody remembers being there.

read the riot act

to rebuke firmly, especially with a stern warning (the riot act was an act of the Parliament of Brittan which was often read before it was enforced and was made particularly infamous by the "Peterloo massacre")

He read the riot act to him in front of everyone when he tried to steal his book.

Turkish Prison Riot

The subsequent chaos that ensues when an individual turns the lights on and off repeatedly in a mens locker room. Especially chaotic after a gym class or hot day.

I leaned up against the light switch and accidentally started a turkish prison riot again.
