From what I read the lights were off for about 30 seconds. Ppl need to stop acting like babies.

It's America...of course people are going to be afraid.

I was there. Wasn't that scary for some reason. Maybe because everyone was so wasted.

The fact that over 70,000 people can't see a thing, alarms going off and the stadium announcing to "remain seated" is terrifying in the world we live in today.

I would've been more scared if I had bet Dallas.

The entire stadium went black, weirdest thing I've seen in a while.

It was actually funny, because for about 15-45 seconds they were off, when the emergency lights popped on, some of the players were on the floor, in a state of..."wtf is going on?"

not from the looks of this highlight it didn't

Some of you guys are idiots. Supposedly the stadium went pitch black, by pitch black I mean you couldn't see the person 2 rows in front of you. Living in the world we live in especially so close to New York City at an event with 80K+ people there, that can be a very scary situation your looking at.

Exactly what I mean!

cnn.com has some nice photo's of it.

What NCAA game was that where they killed the lights cause the underdog was winning.
Off the top of my head I want to say it was Wisconsin @ unlv

For those who know what I am talking about, that was very scary.

It almost screwed me, big time. When I realized they might push my bet, I started to go "Ah, shit!"

Then I saw the light(s).

The @ UNLV part is right, because I have read someone else reminiscing about that situation. Not sure about the opponent, though.

**Iwinyourmoney** · 11-15-10, 12:13 PM

IF I remember right, unlv was a top 25 team and was only around a 7 point fav against a horrible team, the line *should* if been around -16, everyone and their mom was pounding unlv, many outside of the USA sybdicates unloaded. The underdog crap team was up by a good margin with little time left

That's precisely why you should have been scared. I saw 4 fights at a Pats/Cowboys game 3 years ago, and would not want to be at an NFL Rivalry game around a bunch of drunks when the lights go out.

CNN has photos of it, even though it was pitch black and you cannot see two rows in front of you?

Jesus Christ, SBR posters have been pussifield... for real.

I still cannot believe grown ass men are afraid of the dark. Unreal.

Fights did break out btw, for the poster above.
