and according to posts it is a flood now.

this reminds me of the “can the ncaa Tourny be postponed” thread from 2020. All lots of laughing and making fun in that one too.

certainly not out of the question. Let’s hope not!
What posts? Nothing found on Twitter for Piscataway flood or River Road flood.

Ok so what does that mean? If Johnson Park gets flooded it’s not going to stop the game

I know that…but if major roads in are..i don’t think it’s out of the realm that f possibility it gets moved. Especially since it’s a Thursday game and you have 4 days to play it

They dont say ooh we have 4 days to play a game maybe we should postpone so more can attend

If the major roads in New Brunswick/Piscataway are not impacted or not flooded the game is played. What happens in the rest of the state isnt factored in
This.

Guys, the game can not be moved to this weekend. Rumble on The Raritan is this weekend. 24 high school teams are playing in Rutgers Stadium starting Friday at 11:00.

They wouldn’t postpone it so “more can attend”. I never once made that claim. Lol

If Route 18 is flooded out tomorrow the game will most likely have to be moved. Not saying it’s going to happen but it’s not out of the question.

No one can say for certain what Route 18 will look like tomorrow. The rain is still coming down and more headed to NB.

Some people in this thread could really look like aholes by tomorrow lol.

Those games can easily be relocated to high school campuses

If I’m reading that correctly, the river is forecast to reach major flood stage prior to the game tomorrow. Which is not surprising at all. If true, then while the game might not be cancelled or postponed, it might force some serious shuffling by RU to route everybody to the high side of the stadium only, Might be various fire codes or other things that prevent the game.

Game will be played. Too many factors at work and Temple is right down the road, so travel isn’t an issue on either end. Rain moves out by midnight and preparations continue. I’ve already got two folding chairs in my trunk and there’s no turning back now.

Sounds like a big event. Most times you only have one chair. ; )

Not sure why people are discounting the possibility... Obviously there is still a lot of time before the game and we've had plenty of bad storms before... But listening to the scanner now - 18 is flooded in multiple locations in EB, flooding in multiple locations in Highland Park, NB, and Edison, water rescues being made, etc...

If the stadium is there and the fans can get to it they'll play. If the Raritan is over River road in front of the stadium maybe they cancel. Wife says parking in Johnson park IS cancelled for tomorrow.

Nothing to celebrate. You like to stoke anger and division as usual. Be Better.

I have zero clue what happens. But watching the weather channel all night, I’m starting to lean towards the game getting postponed. It’s a damn mess all over the state and the entire area.
