Clear your DVRs, cancel the RSVP to your cousin’s wedding and restock your pantry because Saturday, September 12 is a very important date. Will Ferrell’s new documentary, Ferrell Takes the Field, will premiere on this night, and it’s can’t miss television.
Remember when Will Ferrell randomly showed up to play in several Spring Training games? He actually played all nine positions for five different teams in the same day. It was quite a sight to behold. The documentary will follow the ins and outs of this fairly bizarre day with the help of Ferrell’s company Funny or Die. Furthermore, the film will raise money and awareness for Cancer for College, a charity that helps cancer survivors attend an institution of higher learning.
The documentary should be pretty entertaining while also raising money for a good cause. Unless you hate Frank the Tank, there’s really no reason not to watch.
