    There's a scene in the (excellent) Harold Lloyd movie "Speedy" with a similar thing happening. I'm pretty sure it's at, or outside of, a coffee shop where Lloyd goes to, you know, slip on a banana peel or something. I had the same thought -- Hey! Gameday! -- when I first saw it a couple of years ago.In general, a really good New York movie and baseball movie.
