#1 KLUE Radio's Failed Beatles Record-Burning
On August 13, 1966 KLUE radio station, out of Longview, Texas, organized a mass-burning of Beatles records and merchandise. The station organized this event after band member John Lennon said the Beatles were "more popular than Jesus." But the rally never happened. Just one day later, on August 14, lightning struck KLUE's broadcast tower; damaging the station's equipment and knocking the news director unconscious. The damage ultimately forced the station off the air. Talk about divine intervention.
