Beyond the inside jokes, the fake bits and the banter, "The Ticket: Full Disclosure" gives you the complete low-down on how "The Ticket" got started. From the boys at the back of the bus to one of the most imitated sports talk radio stations on the air today, get the full story as told by the guys you tune in to hear on 1310 AM every day. On the occasion of "The Ticket's" 15th anniversary, Ticketheads finally have a book revealing all the history and behind-the-scenes hi jinks of the Marconi-winning radio station. The ultimate bathroom book for every good, strong P1, this is the true, unvarnished "Ticket" story of how Mike Rhyner and the gang evolved from press-box yuk monkeys to forming the core of one of the nation's most popular radio stations.
