Donohue was no soldier, but the Inwood neighborhood legend wouldn't let that stop him from seeing his friends. So, he hitched a ride into Vietnam and snuck into a war zone to bring his friends a small comfort from home: a case of Pabst Blue Ribbon!

Somehow, Chickie survived his adventure to the front lines, and his friends all lived to tell the tale. "The Greatest Beer Run Ever" is a short documentary that recounts Chickie's wild story, with the help of his friends Bobby Pappas, Tommy Collins, and Ricky Duggan.
