No! It was rain after a snow fall.  I remember my wife was up doing a late night feeding of our one month old daughter and wife woke me to tell me. WTIC  radio back then went off the air at 1:00 AM.  They stayed on that night for a few hours longer.  It was the now defunct Connecticut Mutual Classic.   I worked for a. Another insurance company in Hartford back then in Claims and we spent the morning talking to contacts in underwriting to find out what percentage of the Reinsurance coverage we had.  Aetna was primary as I recall and The Travelers had a piece as did we. With big time coverages like civic centers no one insurance company takes on the entire risk.  The risk has to be spread out among insurance companies via Reinsurance agreements.   Even a large P and  C conpamy could get severally damaged financially with sole coverage.

We could actually see the roof from 5 floors up from the floor that I worked on.   We ended up having to travel to Springfield to watch the Whalers for a couple 2 years or so.

Us insurance companies were lucky that we did not have BI claims since no one was hurt in the empty arena. Hell the property loss was bad enough.
