Lights Out At Super Bowl XLVII

During Super Bowl XLVII, the Baltimore Ravens and the San Francisco 49ers had a strange surprise at the Superdome in New Orleans. In the 3rd quarter, with the Ravens leading, a power outage stunned American football fans as half the lights in the stadium went out. With exactly the same thing happening only yesterday in the Fulham vs Manchester United game at Craven Cottage, NFL chiefs will be wondering how the lighting was not restored until 30 minutes later. This is sport at its spookiest! In the end the Ravens beat the 49ers 34-31.
