Class of 82 Posted May 17, 2009 Report Posted May 17, 2009 My brother and I were remembering this morning about a night Zips game when we were kids (circa the mid-60s) when there was a big meteor that crossed over the stadium. I tried googling it, but didn't get anywhere.Anybody else recall this event? I think it might have been an Acme-Zip game. Quote

I lived near Sandusky and I figured it landed in Lorain county somewhere. It actually landed in New York, it was HUGE! Quote

It was huge and took several minutes to streak across the sky. What a sight! Quote
Zipmeister Posted May 18, 2009 Report Posted May 18, 2009 I was at just about every home game back then and don't recall your "event." You weren't doing mushrooms back then were you? Quote

I was only like 9 or 10. Magic shrooms were a 70's schtick.I'll ask around and see if anybody else remembers. Quote
roodog97 Posted May 20, 2009 Report Posted May 20, 2009 Although I was not yet born, I remember my mother telling me about seeing a meteor during that timeframe in Canton. She described it as being extremely bright as it burned up as the night sky changed into daylight. Quote
