  • 1943:  Susi Ramstein becomes the first woman to take LSD




Quote:

Jun 12, 1943
Twenty-one-year-old Susi Ramstein (the only female apprentice at Sandoz) becomes the first woman in the world to take LSD. She initially took a 100 mics--a higher dose than either Albert's co-worker Ernst Rothlin or his supervisor Arthur Stoll had tried--and she had a good experience. And although everyone working with Albert took acid at least once, Susi tried it two more times in order to help out with establishing some standards for the medical use of LSD. (Susi was Hofmann's lab assistant, and the person who accompanied him from Sandoz to his home via bicycle, on the day that Hofmann took his first intentional dose of LSD.)

  • 1970:  Dock Ellis throws infamous no-hitter on LSD




Quote:

June 12, 1970 no-hitter

Ellis pitched a no-hitter against the San Diego Padres on June 12, 1970. He would admit in 1984 to being under the influence of LSD throughout the course of the game.  Ellis had been visiting friends in Los Angeles under the impression he had the day off and was still high when his friend's girlfriend told him he had to pitch a game against the Padres that night. Ellis boarded a shuttle flight to the ballpark and threw a no-hitter despite not being able to feel the ball or clearly see the batter or catcher. Ellis claims catcher Jerry May wore reflective tape on his fingers which helped Ellis to see his target. Ellis walked eight, struck out six, and was aided by excellent fielding plays by second baseman Bill Mazeroski and center fielder Matty Alou.  During the game, teammates are reported to have commented to Ellis on the bench between innings that he was pitching a no-hitter, despite the superstition that discourages mentioning a no-hitter while it is in progress. Because the no-hitter was the first game of a double header, Ellis was forced to keep track of the pitch count for the night game.

As Ellis recounted it:

    "I can only remember bits and pieces of the game. I was psyched. I had a feeling of euphoria. I was zeroed in on the (catcher's) glove, but I didn't hit the glove too much. I remember hitting a couple of batters and the bases were loaded two or three times. The ball was small sometimes, the ball was large sometimes, sometimes I saw the catcher, sometimes I didn't. Sometimes I tried to stare the hitter down and throw while I was looking at him. I chewed my gum until it turned to powder. I started having a crazy idea in the fourth inning that Richard Nixon was the home plate umpire, and once I thought I was pitching a baseball to Jimi Hendrix, who to me was holding a guitar and swinging it over the plate. They say I had about three to four fielding chances. I remember diving out of the way of a ball I thought was a line drive. I jumped, but the ball wasn't hit hard and never reached me."

The incident inspired the songs "Dock Ellis" by indie rock singer Barbara Manning, "America's Favorite Pastime" by folk singer Todd Snider, "Dock Ellis No-No" by Chuck Brodsky, and "LSD (The Ballad of Doc Ellis)" by Boston rock band Random Road Mother.

FYI: if you're in the Austin, TX area today at 6 PM at The Highball, they're showing clips from a new Dock Ellis documentary called "No-No: A Dockumentary".  I can't wait to see it.  I'm really hoping it has footage from the game.  I'm dying to see that footage and I have no idea how to go about looking for it.

No problemo, bro.  Hey, check out the kickstarter.com campaign to raise funds for the Dock Ellis documentary entitled "No-No: A Dockumentary".  The trailer looks awesome.  Click here.
