Fans watching the final of Euro 2012 between Spain and Italy were treated to an unpleasant surprise not long into the game when they found themselves staring at a black screen for several moments.
The reason? A bad thunderstorm was lashing Bristol, Conn. — aka the headquarters of the Worldwide Leader — and cut the feed for a bit, according to Business Insider.
Soon enough, the signal was restored, and fans were able to continue watching Spain take a commanding 2-0 lead on Italy in the first half.
