Unfortunately for the Rams, the day’s only offensive fireworks came during pregame introductions.
As is usually the case, the lights were dimmed in the Edward Jones Dome as the Rams’ offensive starters were announced and came running out of the tunnel onto the field one by one as their names were called by public address announcer Andy Banker.
As part of this display, fireworks are shot off a few feet in the air in the corner of the end zone where the players come out. Only this time, sparks from the display caused part of the artificial surface to catch fire briefly.
