lol. Possible tornado. Or maybe a REALLY strong gust wind. :lol:

I posted this article because of huge uproar over the spring game being canceled. The little Iowa town of Thurman is just across the Missouri River 60 miles east of Lincoln. Imagine what the headlines would be if we had held the Spring Game and that *possible* tornado had hit Memorial Stadium with 60,000+ fans in attendance? It could've been the worst disaster in sports history.
