Diehard Gamefan. A game magazine that also covered Japanese Anime before Anime became mainstream. It was the shit back during its prime in 94-97, but started to decline up to its death in 2000. Very interesting reviews and articles in there.

Anyway, September of 1995, an incident happened that someone was apparently asleep at the wheel, and THIS snuck into a sports game review:



Gamefan issued an open apology (open as in they published it in the very next issue), saying:



Does anyone else remember of this "incident", and what the details actually were beyond the "apology"?
