Are you expecting weird eclipse-related stories in tomorrow's news?

Asked by Jeruba (55831points) August 20th, 2017

Eclipse mania seems to have kicked in along the “totality” route across the U.S.

I’m predicting that somewhere along that route, clouds are going to spoil the view, and somebody’s going to demand a refund of the $1500 they paid for a tent or a motel room because the show didn’t play.

I’m also figuring that somebody somewhere is going to do something bizarre out of fear, hysteria, or superstition. Not wishing anybody harm, still, a break in the usual current front-page madness would be a nice change.

What are you expecting?
