Candlestick Park Power Outage Causes Blackout During 'Monday Night Football' 

Ah, candlestick. You are missed.

Did Candlestick Park run out of wax?

when the lights go out at Candlestick, and no sun shines on the bay..

I'm sure fans were like "Hey who turned out the lights"

I’m watching the Steelers game right now, on 9/20/2020, the Announcer just mentioned this game.

That must've been super scary to see those transformers blow out like that

I was there and was just thanking the heavens I was not in the bathroom when those lights went out. Ancient, smelly and crowded and pitch black.

Like a candle in the wind.

Transformer, it’s not your birthday!

It's funny cuz this happened at the Super Bowl

I was there when this happened!

This was no coincidence @ the Super Bowl folks. Seek answers.

Can someone tell me the year this happened? thanks.

If I were NFL commissioner, I'd put broadcasts of football games played on Sunday, Monday, and Thursday nights on a strict "GAME OVER" timer; if the game is not finished by midnight that night, the lights at the stadium will IMMEDIATELY go out and the game will end in a tie. For playoff games, if the game is not finished by 11:30 PM that night, the game clock will IMMEDIATELY be deactivated and the winner will be decided by a coin toss. For the Pro Bowl, if the game is not finished by 11 PM that night, the game clock will IMMEDIATELY be deactivated and the winner will be decided by a 50-yard dash, which will start at midfield; first one to cross the goal line wins. For the Super Bowl, if the game is not finished by 10:30 PM, the game clock will IMMEDIATELY be deactivated and the winner will be decided by a 100-yard dash, which will start at the away team's goal line; first one to cross the home team's goal line wins.
