The very short answer is, badness shall ensue.

People with type B blood often have circulating antibodies in their blood stream against type A antigens. If you give a person with type B blood an infusion of type A red blood cells, the person will have a transfusion reaction during which their anti-A antibodies will destroy all the red blood cells you just infused. This can be lethal, and until blood typing was well understood this often happened.
