You, Neon Deon and 'Lectric Liz were right! If Neon Deon had started to dig the hole before calling for help, he could have hit a buried electrical cable which could give him an electric shock. An electric shock can cause serious injuries. Always have your parents call Gopher State One Call at least two working days before you dig any holes in your yard. Gopher State One Call will let you know if there are any underground utility lines buried in your yard.

Call Before You Dig: (651) 454-0002 or 1-800-252-1166.
