The country crooner was headlining LSU's Tiger Stadium on Saturday night when he treated the crowd to an electric performance of "Callin' Baton Rouge." "I have to ask you, Baton Rouge? Is it time?" Brooks asked the more than 100,000 fans as a fiddler began to play. The sold-out stadium responded with a roar.

According to WBRZ, it was the second time in 33 years that jumping and cheering in the stadium registered as a small earthquake. The last time was a football game on October 8, 1988, when LSU narrowly defeated Auburn in the final two minutes of play WATCH: There's a Good Reason Garth Brooks Doesn't Sell Tickets for the First Two Rows at His Concerts As the song ended, fans began to cheer, "L-S-U!
