Hurricane Sandy Brought Pieces of Old Municipal Stadium Out of Lake Erie

That debris on the shores of Bratenahl in Cleveland isn't any normal debris. Those bricks are remnants from old Municipal Stadium, parts of which were used to build three reefs in Lake Erie after the cavernous former home of the Browns and Tribe was demolished.

Hurricane Sandy's sweep across our Great Lake brought the bricks up from the depths and plopped them on land, lucky little souvenirs for someone out there.

By the way Haslam's home is in Bratenahl....... Shocked

And it happened During Ravens Browns week no less.

Omen???????????????

Ohmmmm...I see this as the spirit of great Browns teams past saying that it's time for the team to rise from the depths

all I can say is wow.

If you didn't caption the photo, and simply told me where it was taken, I might have figured it out. I remember that brick color.
