Let's be honest, if they we're into the whole family swap plan at the start, their original marriages probably wouldn't have lasted much longer.

I think the lesson of this story is that only half of everyone should swap spouses. The logistics get a bit hairy at this point, maybe an extra husband or wife or dog here and there, but the other half of y'all need to just stay where you are and enjoy having an extra dog.

I like this series, it should definitely keep going

I remember hearing about this the first time in the mid-80s from one of Jay Johnstone's books. I don't remember if it was Temporary Insanity or Over The Edge.

Pretty funny that the dog thing bothered me more than the leaving your wives and children. It's like, that's man's best friend, that's YOUR best friend, that's an intrinsically loyal beast that LOVES you no matter how much you love or don't love it. You don't just up and LEAVE your dog.

The two MLB players who were traded for each other in the break between games in a doubleheader.

Former New York Yankees left-hander Fritz Peterson, a winner of 109 games for the Bronx Bombers, has died (April 2024). He was 82 years old. Peterson pitched nine seasons for the Yankees from 1966 through 1974, notching a 20-win season in 1970, when he was also named to the American League All-Star team. He also pitched for Cleveland and the Texas Rangers during his career. Altogether, Peterson compiled a 3.30 ERA and 133-131 record, throwing over 2200 innings. Control was Peterson's best trait as a pitcher. He had a career walk rate of 1.7 per nine innings and averaged the lowest walks per nine in the AL for a five-season stretch from 1968 through 1972. However, Peterson is perhaps best known for more infamous reasons. During spring training of 1973, he and teammate Mike Kekich revealed that they had traded families and homes. Kekich's wife and two daughters moved in with Peterson, while Peterson's wife and two sons lived with Kekich. Peterson and Susanne Kekich went on to get married in 1974, and stayed together until his death. However, Mike Kekich and Marilyn Peterson ended their relationship shortly after the trade became public. Kekich was traded to Cleveland later that season.

**The kids, houses, and dogs stayed and the Husbands swapped** SB Nation: “Oh no, imagine the DOGS reaction!”

I agree. No dog swapping. That just crosses a line.

They can take our wife’s, but they will never take ... our dogs!!!!

expected the time when the Tigers and Indians traded managers, but this is just beyond anything I'd have imagined...

Seth's wife after this: "So I saw your video and... is Jon Bois married and if so what do you think of his spouse (No assumptions)?"

Damn this would make a good movie.

Fritz Peterson traded his wife and kids for a future 1st round draft pick and cash considerations.

"The Big Swing" what a movie that would have been.

My fiancé asked me to give up my dog so we could get married and live together in Australia. So now we’re living happily, just the two of us, me and my dog.

And Ben refused to wear a Yankees hat in the other shooting? How the hell he is going to make this movie worked if it really had happened?!
