i live in franklin furnace and its pouring the rain at 4:12 PM AND YES WE HAVE A LOT OF THUNDER AND LIGHTNING.

This is one of the dumbest things I have heard..... cancelling a game because of rain.... U have got to be kidding me.......

I spoke with both ADs. They said that they tried to contact you to get your opinion, but were unable to reach you. They had to make this VERY IMPORTANT decision without your input. Had they known that you felt this way i am sure they would have tried harder to accommodate your needs and desires.

LMAO...not sure what the big deal is, I know I wouldnt want my son out on the field if its lighting like its supposed to. Probably would have a different opinion if your child was out there...idk, to me its a good idea.

I believe this was a brilliant move on the part of the West staff,use the rain as an excuse to get a bigger gate

for a Sat. night game, now that is seeing the big picture!!! i am grateful for whoever came up with this idea.

For 1, more money for West and for 2, I may not have to watch it in the rain. I just wish i thought of it first

[Burg#1]

Great move that way we can watch a great game- bigger gate-big crowd- smart move good luck to both teams:

[WestFan27]

I wish every week the big game would be played on Saturday. That way you could watch your team and not miss the big game.

I think the AD's may have jumped the gun on this one. I just checked the radar and it looks like all of the storms have moved out of the area and all we are going to get is some rain and possible heavy downpours, which is just what the Burg and West played in last year. It's just barely drizzling here in Haverhill at the moment.


So what's next, cancelling games because it's to cold? lol

[seasick80]

if u want to park in about a foot of water, I think they have small boats taking visitors to the gate!

[West_Sider]

Oh my..... Florida @ LSU - 8 pm What am I to do?

No question, Watch our Gators beat the Tigers and listen to our Falcons beat the Siders?

your a bit confident on both arn't you.

GO WEST!!!!

This kinda creeps me out......

[Westsider1993]

Why is that?

[west siders]

the Away parking is completely flooded! up to 1 ft. deep. And the field is pretty wet as well i am glad the game is on Saturday. The Rock will be crowded!

[Tjhtygeverve]

I was by at 6 and like I said, did they want to park on rt 52, maybe at boones....lol its FLOODED!!! Good thing is, rain is not as hard so hopefully it will receed by tomorrow but it WILL be veryyyyyy muddy!!

[Bushy Tail Butcher]

If water does not go down, we should play the game at Minford. It's not flooded, and plenty of parking!!!!!

[DaRecGuy]

HAHA good one, NO chance of that happening!

[RogueWarrior]

yes indeed, this game should either be played at Minford or at the new PHS stadium so parking is not an issue. wonder what shape wests field will be in? maybe another reason to play at PHS or Minford?

[bushmaster24]

been sitting by the river, outside the camper not a hard rain here.. i think somthing other than rain played a roll in this..... with all the equipment at hand over there the parking could have been pump out .. i have been outside from6:oopm till now.. hope it dont rain tomorrow..... minford was not flooded and alot of parking ....

[West Side Pride]

Pump the parking lot out? Out where? Its the lowest spot in a 300 acre field.
.............That's why it's flooded!

[bushmaster24]

pump trucks on hand, take to river and dump... i live on the river plenty of room to pump water off.....nice try

[West_Sider]

Gives me the Creeps when Burgites are rooting for the Siders.
