Preparations for Super Bowl LX have been disrupted by seismic activity in the San Francisco Bay Area just days before kickoff.
An earthquake struck the region early Monday morning, raising concerns as teams, media, and fans arrived for Super Bowl week.
The tremor was felt across parts of Northern California as events were getting underway ahead of the massive game at Levi’s Stadium.

A 4.2 magnitude earthquake was reported near San Ramon, California early Monday morning, according to United States Geological Survey data.

Several smaller aftershocks were also recorded before 7 a.m., with residents across the Bay Area reporting that they felt the shaking.
