The old veteran has-been of a pitcher was reluctantly put into a game after his team's bull pen had been depleted. Milt was drunk on Schlitz. He walked the batter in, bags loaded (and so was Milt), and the opposing team won.
When the opposing coach was asked what the key to the game was, he said "Schlitz; it was the beer that made Milt Famey walk us.

I remember Schlitz. I remember how I used to describe it: “Schlitz s**ts.”

They love us in Minneapolis
They love us in St. Paul
They love us in Milwaukee
And it drives them up the wall
That they can't have
What we've got here --
The great, great taste
Of our SCHLITZ Beer!
They love us! (Schlitz!)
They love us! (Schlitz!)
And we always knew they would (That's Schlitz!)
It makes us so darn proud! SCHLITZ!!!
(done from memory ... might be off on a word or two ...)

My favorite is still Rolling Rock, but I heard they were going to or did change the formula a bit.

Learned about the infamous Schlitz reformulation in a business course. When your bad decision makes it to a textbook you know you really stepped on it.

Schlitz taught me that church keys open other things besides doors.

That is great news! It was my favorite beer back in the ‘50s. They really screwed it up.
