The Charger Cannon

[Boltjolt]

Pipe dream.

No one is moving to San Diego because San Diego is not trying to get anyone to move here. The NFL is bigtime now, not a growing leage trying to establish itself. Small markets have to make themselves lucrative and San Diego doesn't care to do that anymore. San Diego is not a city that has dreams of growing and being big time anymore. We have reached our growth potential and politically the population has shifted to the side that doesn't like to help rich people make more money. We may get an MLS team because thats a struggling league trying to grow.

We will never get an NHL, NBA, or NFL team ever again in the future

Sad but probably true.

Meanwhile Las Vegas has NHL Hockey, a NFL team and trying to get the Oakland A's to move there and they are interested in going and looks like it's very possible.

Drew Brees putting together a group and moving it back to San Diego, with a new Stadium stadium financed through bonds and the ownership group's capitol, and removing all reference to the Spanos Family is my dream.

Never gonna happen.

Forget to mention...in the game against the Radahs...I definitely heard a boom after the Parham touchdown catch. I think the Chargers have a cannon at Sofi.

I heard it too as did Shushu, my little white fluffy fufu dog. She's terrified of fireworks and scurried under the bed immediately after Parham's touchdown.

On one of the charger commercials they showed a cannon there so they definitely have one at Sofi.

I heard them fire off something but didn't see the cannon at the game Monday.

They had a crank where they cranked it up a couple of times trying to fire up the crowd.

I don't know...just seems odd right? Maybe they are afraid its not politically correct or something to have a big "gun" as the celebration ...so keeping it low key.

You can hear a cannon shot at around 2:20 in. After Parham scored.

Great video of the turd game experience by Dizzy.
You can see the cannon fire multiple times.

I see it on the score board, I guess its up in the seats somewhere now instead of on the field?

1. Wow...the quality of the video is great(new phones these days)

2. Party Party....amazing. Full on bar. I never used to drink much at games. I prefer to be alert and don't want to fall asleep towards the end.

3. From ALL my years of watching the charger cannon, I have to say, that thing just looks like it shoots steam. The cannon sound must be from the sound system. Given the enclosed stadium and all the other rules and regulations these days, makes sense. Better than nothing.

Thanks for the video.

I heard the Cannon! But the bigger cannon we're the blocks KA was doing through out the game. Probably was getting double teamed so wasn't able to get open like usual so might as well use this other talent he has. Really impressed....
