No, games have been stopped for lightning as early as the 60's.

They were incredible when the US soccer team had their qualifier against Panama there. It was the only time I've heard a US soccer crowd that was comparable to one you would see in a European setting. It gave me goosebumps through the TV. They had an announced attendance of 40,000 and that was after they put a cap on ticket sales. They were afraid that if they allowed ticket sales to max capacity the Mariners game that was going on at the same time would be completely empty.

I was there for that sitting in the Hawks Nest wich apparently is where the wild Sounder fans sit. The thunder clap ritual was amazing and so loud.

there is no chance he is worse than what I witnessed yesterday.

Chad Henne simply WOULD NOT throw it longer than 5 yards. He wasnt getting pressure that much.

I watch tons of NFL games, that was by far the worst offense i have ever scene. And in fairness, their defense is pretty solid
