SHU Providence Game Suspended

[batts]

due to unsafe floor. The warm weather and the ice from the hockey surface made the floor slippery. Desi Rodriguez rolled an ankle. Only other suspended game I could remember was the RU UMass game at the RAC caused by a student protest.

Going to finish tmw at Providence on campus gym. Then SHU has St. John’s on Saturday at 12:00. SHU was playing well. Yikes.

Didn't they have an issue with birds a few years ago? Or bats?

Also happened in one of those November games on an aircraft carrier about four years ago. Ended up cancelling the game for player saftey.

Had a problem with roof leaking onto floor at BE women’s tournament in Storrs quite a few years ago.

Anyone remember what I think was falling paint chips at the barn a long time ago?

1 year before my start OTB. but I do recall years of balloons sitting stuck in the roof of the rac for years..

A close look at the rafters revealed paint chips on yellowed water pipes, and water stains on ceiling slats.

And yes, there were times during thunderous dunks or playground-legend passes when the noise erupted so loudly that paint chips would float from the rafters like confetti.

I remember a leaky Carrier Dome roof causing many delays.
