Game day plans? 🏈
No matter who you’re rooting for, earthquake safety is always in season.
If shaking starts:
Drop, Cover, and Hold On
Don’t run outside
Don’t stand in doorways
Know what to do before the shaking starts and make sure you have the MyShake app downloaded so you can get earthquake alerts and safety guidance when it matters most.
Stay safe, stay informed, and enjoy the game.

Most earthquake injuries come from falling objects, not building collapse.
Secure ONE item today:
- Bookshelf (wall strap)
- TV/Monitor (anti-tip)
- Mirrors/Frames (quake hooks)
- Cabinets (latches)
- Small objects that could fly (museum putty)
