The Browns and Steelers rivalry has been a bitterly fought game on the field and in the bar since Max has owned the place.  Max has a way with words and somehow a bet was established that the loser had to jump in the lake.  You just hope that if you are on the losing end of the bet it is in October instead of December.  Here is a classic story about a  jump from 1981.
