Metallica brought years of pent-up excitement to Virginia Tech’s Lane Stadium on Wednesday night, energizing the crowd with a live performance of the Virginia Tech Hokies’ iconic entrance song during a stop on their M72 World Tour.

As the opening chords of “Enter Sandman” rang out at the show, more than 60,000 fans jumped together, creating enough force to register ground movement. The Virginia Tech Seismological Observatory, located a mile away, detected tremors during the set and later confirmed that the crowd had, quite literally, shaken the earth.

There are many great entrances in college football, but few are as electric or as loud as Virginia Tech running out to Metallica's "Enter Sandman" for a big game (especially at night).
