The entire area was blacked out. The Saint steets, hotel across Congress.....looking east down Congress all was dark, including traffic lights. Zero percent chance this was a UL.issue

All buildings with "ASSEMBLY" occupancy must have backup power in cases like this. The stand by electric capacity is only for, exit lights, aisle lights, means of egress lights, area of refuge lights and public address power. It can be in the form of an autonomous generator or battery. It is not intended as a full "whole house" power supply. Everything is spelled out in the Life Safety Code. Good reading to cure insomnia.
Indoor events with large crowds can attract the attention of the fire Marshal. Believe it or not the fire Marshal can force a venue to shut down when blatant or excessive safety issues are involved. He/she is the ultimate authority in emergency situations not the event promoter. The fire Marshal is a badge carrying, fire arm toting branch of the state police and has arrest authority should things get to that point. They usually wear a bright white highly starched shirt, side arm, navy blue or blue pants and polished black shoes. They are not to be taken lightly and they typically get what they want or you wind up in jail.

And there is a little unintentional wordplay.
What’s funny is, and also an indictment on this place, that no one would be able to tell its sarcasm if you didn’t specify it. It looked like a regular post from the last two years on here.

Keep reminding myself that all of this is supposed to be fun. College sports games and talking about them on message boards. It's a hobby. Often times we forget to enjoy it. I'm certainly guilty of it.

Maybe if we didn’t take those international trips, we could keep the lights on….

Using "shocked" during a power outage has my head spinning.
