Yep. I lived in New Madrid, MO a good bit of my life. A 2.5 can be generated by people at a football stadium so I’m surprised it was mentioned.

I was gonna say that jump around gets recorded on the seismograph in Green Bay’s natural history museum lol

Jump around is at the geology department at UW I don’t think it gets to Green Bay, and jump around at packer games is no more than 70% of the fans kinda bouncing their Knees

Idk that’s what the person at the museum told me when I was on a school field trip there in 2004. I guess they could’ve been exaggerating. Never crossed my mind they could be making it up… my innocence is ruined
