A football game between Cincinnati Bearcats and TCU Horned Frogs took an unexpected turn. The match, held at Amon G. Carter Stadium in Fort Worth, Texas, was abruptly paused due to a lightning delay. This happened in the first quarter, with just under eight minutes left on the clock. At that point, TCU was ahead with a score of 7-0.
The delay started after a punt by Cincinnati's Max Fletcher. Lightning was seen nearby, so both teams were told to head to their locker rooms. Fans were also asked to leave the stadium for safety reasons, although some chose to stay put. The game had begun under clear skies and a pleasant temperature of 68 degrees. However, things took a turn for the worse as a thunderstorm rolled in.
TCU had taken the lead earlier in the game. They scored a touchdown after Cincinnati failed to convert a fourth-down attempt. This gave TCU a short field to work with, making it easier for them to score. The touchdown was a result of a pass from Josh Hoover to Joseph Manjack IV.
The weather delay has caused some issues. Initially, it was just about lightning, but soon, the sky opened up, and the rain poured down. Every time lightning strikes, the delay gets extended by another 30 minutes. This means the game might not resume anytime soon. Fans and players alike are left waiting, hoping for the weather to clear up so the game can continue.
