84 MPH Winds Harm Fans, Damage New Stadium

A major storm hit St. Louis minutes before Wednesday night's game's scheduled start time. It had to have been a scary scene.

Deadspin was there.

]And then: WHAM. Within literally a matter of seconds, the place exploded. The beer tent we were standing under imploded, sending -- no! -- beer flying everywhere and people scattering in all directions. A television camera fell from just above us. Everyone ducked for cover; one guy ran around with his daughter, screaming that she had a bad heart, though he seemed a lot more scared than she did. We think we even heard Joe Buck cry. It was absolutely surreal: A beautiful baseball day, attacked by aliens within seconds. A satellite dish went flying off the roof of a building across the street. Heck, we even lost our hat.

That looked terrible. I hope nobody was seriously hurt.
