Station Fire Won't Cancel UCLA vs. SD State Game

capt.ad545c228c1f44d1a10e4552ab0fcc0b.ucla_preview_football_la109.jpg As the Station Fire raged over the weekend, causing air quality to pummel, officials were unsure if a game between UCLA and San Diego State could safely be played at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena. After consulting university medical staff along with Pasadena officials and air-quality experts, Athletic director Dan Guerrero said the game is on! So now the question is, will the Bruins show up and kick ass?

That's pretty hardcore. I work at JPL and it's been miserable all week. So much so that after suffering through Tues, I've refused to go out there and have been working from home (Venice, thank god). For the sake of the athletes, hopefully it really is better on Saturday...

I am quite surprised they are allowing this game to go on with what I have heard (and seen) about the fires. Like charmon says, I hope the situation improves soon.

Other cities have their high altitude, their snow, rain, we've got our smog. Tactical advantage.
