Before the San Diego Chicken entertained stadiums as the clown prince of baseball, Max Patkin entertained fans at ballparks all over the country! Patkin also had a great role in the movie "Bull Durham" playing himself, of course! He even gets to do a restaurant scene with Kevin Costner, Tim Robbins, and Susan Sarandon, whom he dances with! Not too shabby for the one-time clown prince of baseball! His rock around the clock pitching routine is legendary!
