Lightning in a Jar: the most-awaited feature of the renovation

by MTBoltFan on Jul 31, 2011 1:34 PM EDT

If you're anything like me, you're kinda excited about this whole St Pete Times Forum (SPTF) renovation idea. What's more, I'm really excited--and intrigued--about the prospect of lightning firing off after every goal for the Lightning (a la the flames in Calgary's barn).

Well, just the other day the gents at Puck Podcast on Facebook posted a YouTube video of what we can expect from the new feature: Tesla coils that can shoot lightning 26 feet. Cool, but you have to see it for yourself.

Now, you gotta wonder how many people will be voicing safety concerns with this.

Good call—is there a way to embed multimedia by us “non-editor” types? I didn’t think that was an option; hence the hyperlink.

There should be.

If you go to the editor pane fora FanPost, look on the right hand side. In that blue field there SHOULD be a row of icons — oen looks like a picture, one looks like a TV. The TV icon lets you embed youtube videos.
