Overall: 
Thank you for this entertaining entry! Great piece of pop culture to record. I made a pair of minor copy edits for clarification in the first paragraph under career, to specify which Veeck you were talking about and that Anti-Disco Night and Disco Demolition Night were the same thing, but please revise if I’ve misunderstood anything. Once the DOB is sorted, I think you’ll be good to go! Innisfree987 (talk) 07:47, 7 September 2024 (UTC)
