August 4, 20168 yr comment_213258 It's almost over. They are playing tonight. It's impossible to reschedule the game to a time other than tomorrow even that's hard to lots of logistics envolved.
August 4, 20168 yr comment_213261 7 minutes ago, do or die said: lightning moving on....but wind is swirling round.......looks like O and S...will be in the wee hours of the morning. .. looks you better head back to the LC and get more Gin, going to be a long night. Just sent Mrs. KBF to the Walmart here to get more beer...
August 4, 20168 yr comment_213263 TSN keeps showing the stadium and it has tonnes of lightning.... could they not play tomorrow?
August 4, 20168 yr comment_213264 They are playing tonight probably be about 20 min till they start warming up.
August 4, 20168 yr comment_213267 Storm stalled over the stadium. No confirmed start time. First game in 17 years as a ticket holder I've left early. If it was just me, I'd probably still be there .. had my daughter with me tonight .. to her credit .. she wanted to tough it out.

August 4, 20168 yr comment_213269 We left. Still in the south end. Bursts of lightening every 5 minutes. Just call it.
August 4, 20168 yr comment_213270 I am directly north of the stadium 3 km, nine storeys up facing west. The sky is clearing up but it looks like at least half an hour until it arrives. However southwest it is still dark. I can no longer see any bolts of lightning but I see the flashes. This indicates to me that the lightning has proceeded past my current point of location.
August 4, 20168 yr comment_213271 So, if they start at 10 pm, it'll be a 1 am finish. It should've been called.
August 4, 20168 yr comment_213273 How will they honour Milt tonight with the game starting so late & so few fans in the stands? He deserves a lot better.
August 4, 20168 yr comment_213275 Game was pretty poorly attended to begin with.... gonna play for 10k tops

August 4, 20168 yr comment_213277 There goes home field advantage but also means less boo birds as well
August 4, 20168 yr comment_213278 With no contingency to re play the game that will be fair to both teams waiting it out is the reasonable, logical thing to do, imo.
August 4, 20168 yr comment_213279 After so many years, there should be rules in place that will help make weather decisions that delay games like this easier & make sense.
August 4, 20168 yr comment_213280 First game I've been to live this year. But everyone is in good spirits. Rain stopped. Lightning seems to have stopped also. Maybe refs will be inspired to call a speedy game.

August 4, 20168 yr comment_213282 I am sitting in stadium facing west have not seen lightning in over 15 min
August 4, 20168 yr comment_213283 A lot of people left but still more than an Argo game! Lots staying.
