In 1983, 3,000 friends and family of the crew of USS Enterpise waited on a pier in the rain for the carrier to return from an 8 month cruise only to see it get stuck in the San Francisco mud 1,000 yards out. The crew lined the port side in an effort to dislodge the carrier.
After 5 hours, the Enterprise was finally freed by tugs, the incoming tide, and the weight of the crew. On board was guest George Takei, best known for his role as Sulu on "Star Trek". He quipped that the event should be marked with a new drink named "Enterprise on the Rocks".
