I am seeing a new trend in football. Last week they delayed the start of the Miami Dolphins game for 30 minutes because of lightning and today they delayed the Florida State game for 45 minutes, in the middle of the game, because of lightning.
What was notable is that the announcers in the Florida State game came back after 45 minutes and reported that they had not seen ANY lightning during that period.
WTF is wrong with football. There is NO record of anyone EVER being struck by lightning at a college or pro football game.
If there is increased risk then so what. Maybe it will make someone the unlucky designee as the guy that gets knocked off by lightning.
I go to every home Jaguars game and I accept that risk. If they delay one of my games for lightning then I'll call the players and officials exactly what they are ... pussies.
