Games being moved. (Weather)

[Vott]

Just saw that D'Iberville and West Harrison moved their game up to Thursday night. Cant understand why this has become a pattern now. Back in the day if it was a 90/100% chance of rain on a Friday gameday, you just went out and played as if it were a clear dry night. Teams usually enjoyed one wet muddy game before turf became a thing.

Less gate money. Already hard enough to get people to come watch a live game in the streaming era. Let alone rainy seats.

Also nobody wants to sit through lighting delays. Every strike resets the 30 minute window.

That and they make you leave the stadium and go back to your vehicle.  At least if there's no issues of bad weather on Thursday, they get the game in which is what is important.
