One evening during club meeting (alcohol was involved) a 30-06 made the pole
peg 100% defective.  Power company replaced it, and the noise was gone ever
since.

I had a similar experience at an AT&T Long Lines site in NorCal at which I had an HF station around 2004. A major wildland fire came through (started 7 days and 20 miles from our QTH) and took out about 10 poles on the feed to us. After they replaced those poles, it was a lot quieter.

I have a solid alibi -- I was in Chicago at the time.
