Earthquake

I not crazy I heard this yesterday on ESPN sportcenter but I can't find any proof. They said that when Lynch ran that touchdown that the crowd got so crazy that they were the cause for a small earthquake. I'm not making this up did anyone else hear this.

Nola.com have reported that the sound reading was so loud that stadium shook a little.
Lynch isn't anything special, we made him look great with pathetic tackling (porter, greer, LB's)

Seattle's never had that many fans excited at one time before. The architect probably never planned on it when he built it...

That's what I like about the NFL. Hey I want to win every year like all Saints fan but it's no fun having teams dominate to the point other cities seldom get any glory. Nobody gave us a chance when we won our first playoff game and I can assure you the dome was just as loud when Milne recovered that fumble.

There are 3-4 games that I've been to in the dome that if measured would have registered on the richter scale. Hakeem drops the ball and Milne recovers the ball. Steve Gleason's blocked punt and the TD on the return to the dome and Hartley's kick to put us in the superbowl. Porter's pick was almost as loud. Another loud moment was the 2006 game against the Eagles when Deuce carried about 5 Eagles into the endzone for a TD.

I was there fro three of those.

Hakim - first time I said the "F" word in front of my Mom.

Gleason - was returning to seats w double gin & sodas that went into the air.

Deuce - I swear I saw someone crowd surfing in a Deuce jersey

Hartley kick - I will NEVER forgive my boss for making me fly to Albuquerque that day...NEVER.

I think it was Gregg Williams, screaming his head off at his players that push it over the limit.
