The Dean Martin Celebrity Roasts were a fixture on NBC s Thursday night lineup from 1973 to 1984. In those 11 years, Dean and his panel of pals successfully ridiculed, embarrassed and made fun of legendary stars like Frank Sinatra, Lucille Ball, Sammy Davis Jr. and Dean Martin himself, to name a few, and America loved it!

This special sports edition features baseball legends Hank Aaron, Yogi Berra, Joe Garagiola, Mickey Mantle, Willie Mays and Stan Musial. Taped only 10 days before Aaron broke Babe Ruth s longstanding major league career home-run record, a monumental achievement of power and consistency that moved roaster Norm Crosby to laud him as a great human being he s virile, he s stagnant, he s a man of depth and perversion. Includes Dean Martin, Red Buttons, Orson Wells, Milton Berle, Ernest Borgnine, Glen Campbell, Gabe Kaplan, Don Rickles, McLean Stevenson, Lou Rawls, William Conrad and many more.
