mfrontz Posted July 1, 2017 Share Posted July 1, 2017 More Allentown rain stories: Cavaliers 1993 performing in a downpour. Glassmen 2004 being pulled off field in the middle of their show, then doing their show after a long delay. I was at both shows. Before my time, there is a story about rain the night before, and a helicopter being brought in to hover over the field in order to dry it out before a.m. prelims.

barigirl78 Posted July 1, 2017 Share Posted July 1, 2017 No refunds for the $100 I spent for 2 tickets. I will wait to buy at stadium next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

soccerguy315 Posted July 1, 2017 Share Posted July 1, 2017 I think all DCI shows are no refunds... if it makes you feel better, the shows still have to pay the corps (I think), so your money is going to a good cause. If you want good tickets, you have to buy and cross your fingers. I bought my August Allentown tickets when they went on sale last fall, so obviously no way to know the weather. That is definitely 1 positive of the indoor shows. You know there won't be a rainout. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geluf Posted July 1, 2017 Share Posted July 1, 2017 Pretty much why I only go to dome shows now. SA each year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The rain was so bad that night, it caused a concert stage to collapse and people were killed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sched88 Posted July 1, 2017 Share Posted July 1, 2017 Just got back from a disappointing trip to Allentown. First time I attended a drum corps show that was cancelled in 20 years. I really wanted to see the Cadets show and had a first time drum corps attender there too. Now, I can't wait until DCI East! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soon-after Cadets finished performing, the rain started up again. #AllentownDrumCorpsChronicles I remember sitting in the stadium with my rain poncho on. It was raining on Crown's performance.

Precious Roy Posted July 1, 2017 Share Posted July 1, 2017 Indoor shows are still not a guarantee to be dry. I was in the upper deck that year the Georgia dome had a river coming down one of the aisles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
