June 1, 200422 yr I'm still in shock that my car was one of the cars that burned up!!!!! The idiot in front of me placed his charcoal grill under the front of his car. He lit his car up, and mine was right in front, and downwind. My car was totally burned out. Nothing left to salvage. Actually it is my wife's car.....she is on vacation so I took it to the game today. I got home a few minutes ago and haven't called her yet. Just wait 'til she gets the message.....honey, you're going to get a new car. The guys at PPS were very helpful. The Director of PPS gave me $100 for the cab ride home. The guy has State Farm, so they will have to pay for the replacement of all of the cars. Ouch. I'll bet they drop him like a hot potato. Incredible. I'm still speechless. My condolences, it must have ruined your day. Thanks, but I'll get over it. I'll take the $$$ and get a newer car. It was very bizarre. I saw the smoke during the game and thought someone's car must be on fire. Didn't think about it again once the smoke cleared. I was walking across the parking lot when I saw the sheriff car with lights on and all the yellow tape cordoning off the area. At first I thought there someone must have had there car broken into. As I got closer I saw all the burnt cars and was thinking my car is around there somewhere. And then I saw it, totally burned out to the trunk. Only the license plate was legible. I told the sheriff that was my car and they let me through. Almost immediately some gal from a news team stuck a microphone in my face and asked me how I felt. What a dumb question. I was shocked. What do you think? What a crappy ending to a disappointing loss. :banghead

My luck is so bad that if I were there, my car would have been one of the ones on fire too, luckily this is one game I decided to skip :confused . Anyway, what gate was this next to?
June 1, 200422 yr Yeah i was in the game! I saw a bunch of smoke sorrounding the field and i didnt know what it was. Now i know, but damn i thought it was a Bomb or something.
June 1, 200422 yr Yea i could see the smoke from my seat. It stopped once but then started again like 10 minutes later. I hope everyone is alright.
