Default Lost my exhaust on the highway lol

I took my car up to about 5k rpm's when all of the sudden my exhaust got really loud and I heard a scraping sound. I pulled over and both sides of my y pipe had come off and it was just hanging on that safety loop. Its really weird because one side popped off the other day so I recently tightened both band clamps VERY tight. I just took the ypipe/muffler off....open headers sound badass

Interesting note, we have no inspections in the great state of Oklahoma.
