Barney Gorman works as a garbageman in Philadelphia, but comes home every night to a family that wishes he had a better job. Frustrated at his life, he kicks a water jug that travels dozens of yards through the air. A scout for the Philadelphia Eagles happens to see this and signs him to the team. Not accepted at first by his teammates and fans, Barney soon becomes a local hero after kicking several field goals to win games. That success, however, goes to his head, and his change in attitude could cost him everything.
