Do the woke cause lightning?


Probably but the woke are the mentally ill that create safety rules for everything in America to the detriment of just about everything. Remember when you were a kid and you rode your bike without a helmet and knee pads. It’s those same people.

Show me the highlight of a lightning strike at a stadium during a game in that same time frame.



You want to see the highlight of someone being struck by lightning? What kind of morbid idiot are you?

Ain’t one.



It has happened but it is rare. A 15-year-old high school football player named Schaffner Noel was killed by a lightning strike during a game in Coconut Creek, Florida, on October 6, 2005.

I also have a friend whose sone was killed by a lightning strike while riding dirt bikes with a friend.

Check the highlights, you’ll see idiots falling out of bleachers for the last 50 years.



Yeah, most of them were doing something stupid. Not the same thing.

But for the record, I do think the 10-mile thing seems a bit much.

It's our "sue everybody for everything" society that causes things like this. It's made everyone way too cautious these days.


Agree, now we are making up events that have never happened during a game to be cautious about. Worrying about a lawsuit someone imagined could happen.

If someone has a highlight of a player or fan being struck by lightning during a college sports event we would have all seen it.

Like I said ain’t one.

Dang right! This would completely transform the cost of doing business in America. The blood suckers would be very careful with each and every lawsuit.

Can’t play a game because of lightning 8 miles way but 80,000 can sit there in the stadium waiting on the lighting to be 9 miles away.

I make this point every time lol. There’s no rational justification.

It's not. I remember not wearing seat belts either. FYI, about 300 kids a year- that's almost 1 a day- die as a result of a head injury while riding a bike.

We live in highly litigious times. Yep it’s absurd.


If they were struck by lightning in the upper deck, they’d be the first one suing LSU. Pay them no attention.

Weather is the same since college football started in the 1800s. But games are being delayed more so the left can use fake stats to pretend climate change is real.


What in the actual frick?

Yeah, lightning rule is stupid.
Helmets not stupid.

Didn’t think either of those things were political lol.

Looks like the NCAA codified the automatic delay rule in 2014, for anyone who was curious like I was.

No one not ate up with politics thinks that is the root of either of those things. Or thinks they are somehow related to "wokeness".

This. Education and knowledge (and common sense) does not equal woke.

Now back to the rain delays. It’s to cover their asses in this lawsuit society we live in. They don’t care if you stay in the stadium during lightning. They care that they put up a message on the Jumbotron to take shelter. Saves them a billion dollars in the chance some people do get struck.

And can we please stop using woke for everything? Stop letting the talking mouthpieces on TV keep you angry and hateful all day. We are all humans just making it to the next day.
