The Mike Calta Show Featured Cut
Tucker does a great thing on the internet every week where he brings us facts, whether it be about history or movies, whether you like that or not.
On Thanksgiving Day 1900, nearly 20,000 fans packed the stands to watch the college football game between the California Berkeley and Stanford stadiums.
Nearly a thousand other fans didn't want to pay the dollar admission, so they went to watch from a different location.
They climbed the roof of the San Francisco Glassworks factory across the street to watch the game from there.
Unbeknownst to them, beneath the roof where the crowd was gathered was a furnace melting 14 tons of glass at nearly 3,000 degrees.
Nearly 20 minutes into the game, disaster struck as the building roof collapsed.
Nearly 100 people fell over 40 feet to the ground below with nearly 60 people falling directly onto the surface of the furnace which was over 500 degrees of melting glass melting glass overall 23 people ended up dying in the disaster and the game continued as if nothing happened
We'll tailgate barbecue
Speaking of, I'm obsessed with watching, we talked about this yesterday, taking those red hot fireballs and dropping them into stuff.
