Within the 70 minutes that it will take for the National Guard to arrive, they plot to loot every home and business in the city.However, one man has been forgotten in the rush to get everyone out. Aging football player Boomer Hayes was in his hot tub, expecting to get lucky, when his lady friend, Laura Sage went to see what was going on and was taken in the rush to evacuate everyone. The officers thought that Boomer was her dog, but checked anyway. After taking care of one of the cops sent to kill him, Boomer is trapped in the hot tub by an officer, but before he can shoot him, hes shot from behind. Ed Kelvin, a cop in on the whole thing but disgusted by the ruthless murder of the Mayor he was told there would be no killing, fills in Boomer on the whole situation, and Boomer decides to help bring in the real police, who are locked in the stations hazmat suit room. Donning his jersey, injecting cortizone for his bum knee, and enlisting Kelvins help, Boomer will spend the next 70 minutes attempting to stop the robbery and bring Masterson to justice, while evading excops and the hired thug Benitez, who has commandeered a SWAT tank and is gunning for Boomer and Kelvin. ........
