Good morning all! Hope you had a great weekend! Now let鈥檚 get your week started!
Fun Fact: A man who was wrongly accused of murder was proven innocent after footage showed he was at a Los Angeles Dodgers game. It wasn鈥檛 the Dodgers footage that saved him though. A famous episode of HBO鈥檚 Curb Your Enthusiasm was filmed at Dodger Stadium during the game. The footage proved the man was at the game and not at the murder.
There鈥檚 a short 40 minute documentary about it on Netflix.
