The Boys from Dogtown

A beautiful brand new minor league baseball park is opening in Arkansas’ city affectionately called Dogtown, and a group of oldtimers have rented a Walmart suite for a reunion where they can chow down, drink beer and most of all, reminisce about how the years have gone since that eventful summer in the 1960s when they fought for the state baseball championship. Currents from many oncoming storms charged the air that year in the Age of Aquarius: civil rights, war in Vietnam, longhaired tuneouts, hash and pot–the year a mismatched band of losers finally learned brotherhood and lessons they have carried with them for the rest of their lives.
