I was at the ER because of a migraine and while there six people came into the ER.
The nurse told me they were at the Fairgrounds at the dog show were struck by lightning! Two dogs were killed!

Has ANYONE been in contact with people that were there and who were the people hurt?!?!

**HedgeYourBets** · 09-05-2011, 01:33 AM

I just saw this on Facebook. I didn't hear about any dogs dying though.

**Idorsearogele** · 09-05-2011, 01:47 AM

I know several members from here were going...Sydney, Cynthia, Jean to name a few! God I hope they are okay!
I wouldn't of known about it if I hadn't asked the nurse a question and she told me I'd have to wait to see him because 6 people where struck by lightning at the dog show!

I teared up because I KNOW people that were gonna be there!
