The game between Michigan State and Wichita State at the Old Spice Classic in Orlando was delayed 45 minutes due to water coming in through the air vents.

And to say that they don't ahve rain delays inside!

Happened to Georgia Tech last season, too at home against Virginia. And while I can't recall the details, I thought it happened in a tournament game last year and the teams ended up having to play a rescheduled game in a different venue that was so small, no fans were allowed. Anyone have the details on that one?

It was the SEC tourney in Atlanta.

They ended up playing at Ga Tech. Only family & friends were allowed.

Well that wasn't really a rain delay at the SEC Tournament, the tornado in Atlanta ripped some of the Georgia Dome apart.

Thanks for the reminders, Ski and Hey ... Google wasn't my friend on this one when I tried to get the specifics
