In light of the projected weather for this Saturdays game...

The most fun I've ever had at a Mass / Mck game was last year at PBTS. My kids and I were bundled up in the endzone in our .89 cent plastic panchos, while the weather hit all four seasons over the course of the game! Sun, Rain Sleet, Snow, even hail! It was cold, but awesome! I'm actually looking forward to this! GO TIGERS!!

You are one sick puppy (cat, sorry). Lol. That was brutal. But it sure felt better on our side than theirs!

I don't remember the weather being that bad, although I did walk to the game through Sippo Park in a snowstorm. Didn't things clear up right about kickoff? I don't remember being particularly cold, either.

They say the memory is the first to go. :lol:

The 30-40 minutes before the game started were unbelievable, even into the game. Black clouds, freezing rain/sleet/hail and thunder. It looked like the world was coming to an end. Then the sun came out later (and off and on for the rest of the day) but gusty, cold winds after you were already drenched made for a chilly day.

gotigers3796,

When I saw all of that...I still can't believe how the sunlight came out after all of that rain, sleet, hail, and snow. I'd have liked it better had it snowed.

What will the forecast be for Saturday?

Try weather.com, or you can always just click on the little orange weather box that is in the top right corner of every MP forum page. :poke:

I remember the thunder last year. I got nervous (not that I wasn't allready) that the game would be postponed or something. Took my grandson to school this morning and the band marched thru his school playing "Tiger Rag". No matter how many times you hear that it never gets old!!! I started to feel the pregame nerves!!!!

Seeker,

Seriously (and NO...I'm not trying to start anything), there is supposed to be a storm come kickoff with a chance of thunder and lightning too.

I'll know more about the forecast for a second look before the night is over.

Most of us know that Storm as the Massillon Tigers taking the field. With the Thunder courtesy of Devoe Torrence, and the Lightening courtesy of KJ Herring! Bring the storm to "The Drip" tomorrow Tigers!!!!

Mass6,

My reference is to a weather storm. It's supposed to be pretty bad. When was the last time a thunderstorm occurred between the two rivals?

I know Keno, just jabbin at ya! Last year it thundered pretty bad, but that was all before the game. Other than that it has been a while since anything like that happened. I know my dad's team in 1970 changed uni's at halftime due to all the rain, but I'm not sure if it thunderstormed.

Mass6,

Actually, I'd like to see what would happen if there was a thunderstorm...I think it would be nice.

Interesting anecdote on your part there.
