A massive thunderstorm hit the Northeast last night, causing a flag atop WWE Headquarters in Stamford to be ripped from its moring.
The flag landed on a power line, sparking an explosion in downtown Stamford. There were thankfully no reports of power outages, although the flag did catch fire. We are told there are still remnants hanging this morning from the lines.
