What we know:
On Wednesday night, an estimated 60,000 fans erupted in synchronized jumping and cheering as the band played the opening chords of "Enter Sandman," a tradition at the school’s football games.
The energy surge led to unusual ground tremors detected by the Virginia Tech Seismological Observatory (VTSO), with peak activity recorded during the iconic song, according to FOX Weather.
"Thanks for jumping with us, Metallica! Come back anytime," Virginia Tech Athletics posted online, along with video footage of the crowd.
