WRAL: "Something just blew the fuck up in Clayton, but no one knows what it is yet. We'll keep you updated if anyone figures out WTF is going on."

9/7/2008 7:17:51 PM

Also... they've ruled out "Sonic Boom"

9/7/2008 7:19:43 PM

i'm from goldsboro, home of seymour johnson AFB, so i've heard a lot of sonic booms and i've never heard one that i'd actually describe as a "boom"

9/7/2008 7:23:11 PM

So far, they haven't ruled out Godzilla.

9/7/2008 7:25:16 PM

^^That, and all the military planes had landed by 4:15 according to WRAL.

9/7/2008 8:16:26 PM

Meteor that just blew up in the air?

9/7/2008 8:20:21 PM

It was me. I was pounding your mom's ass.

9/7/2008 8:21:22 PM

i think if it was a meteor, there'd be a wider area that heard it... i mean, it'd explode miles and miles high, but this was only heard in a small swath on the ground.

[Edited on September 7, 2008 at 8:33 PM. Reason : prolly some redneck blowing up a still or meth lab]

9/7/2008 8:32:36 PM

9/7/2008 9:10:08 PM

it could be a meteor or a comet of some sort. or perhaps and astro, or maybe a small planet of some form or another.

9/7/2008 9:12:55 PM
