Massive sinkhole opens up in college football stadium’s field

Be very, very careful where you throw a touchdown pass if you happen to be playing football at this stadium anytime soon. You might just wind up in the end-of-the-earth zone.

A massive sinkhole has just opened up in the north-western corner of Governors Stadium, the home ground of the Austin Peay Governors, the college football team representing Austin Peay State University in Clarksville, Tennessee.

No one was injured and heavy equipment is on the scene.

There is no word yet whether the sinkhole was created by natural causes or human causes. Sinkholes are a natural occurrence in areas with soluble bedrock like limestone, and Tennessee is in such a zone.

But scientists also say that sinkholes can be caused by human construction activities like tunneling, mining or anything that disturbs the subterranean water flow.

A huge rock quarry lies barely a kilometer from the stadium, but there is no suggestion at this stage that it had anything to do with the sinkhole.
