re: Why No More Earthquake Games?

I was there as well, remember this was the late 4th quarter of a really close game.Plus it was at night and the tension had been growing all game. Finally with Hodson to Fuller the pressure valve gets released and everyone went bat shite crazy.

Back in 1988 going to the games was a commitment and you stayed and got liquored up. Hell, I knew sherriff's deputies that would go into the Fraternity section and get their 2nd quarter refreshments. The stadium was much older at the time. So maybe it handled vibration differently. I knew Geology guys there who said this was no big deal that big plays in big games always registered. This one got press because the spike was a bit more pronounced than usual. It was more of a PR move at the time.
