LOL. You want to hear something even funnier? I think the authorities did jam cell phones as a precaution. Exactly what we would want them to do immediately following a large explosion near a crowded stadium.
But it may end up meaning nothing more than that. Again, not a conspiracy, but a precaution. It makes me feel good to know that—shock—our "authorities" may actually be on the ball, just in case.
And I enjoy first hand accounts like PhiKappaMom who gave good insight into how things progressed throughout the evening because it gives great insights into the "feel" on the ground. But that doesn't mean that all the witnesses are correct. Some things may not have correlation to each other. Basic detective work.
Ah, well—speculation is fun. But I now return this thread to its previously scheduled programming, because I have Sunday shows to watch.
"But that doesn't mean that all the witnesses are correct. Some things may not have correlation to each other."
In virtually every plane crash, somebody (usually more than one person) reports seeing flames before the crash. In most cases, there are no flames UNTIL the crash, but people expect to see flames, so they do.
I'd be absolutely STUNNED if some of those 84,000 people hadn't reported seeing ME types running from the scene.
They did not jam cell phones, I was at the game and heard/felt the blast. (It was impressive). I immediately called my wife to tell her I was OK and asked her to hawk Fox News and let me know what had just happened. So did many others in my section.
Something is odd. I think Boren is wordsmithing the whole incident, not wanting to let something out. Something like AQ or PA homicide bombers among us. It was very close to half time when many head out for a beer. An opportune time to inflict a lot of injury without having to get past security at the gates. Phi Kappa Mom's story supports the same line of thinking.
