The sad story of the First Responder Bowl

As a football junkie, I try to catch as many college bowl games as I can (when I am in the country, of course) However, during my 20+ years of watching college football, I don't remember any bowl game that was cancelled, until today: lightning in the Dallas area where the First Responder Bowl was held. After delaying the games for hours, the weather is still bad (and dangerous to play under) and the game was cancelled! It will show up as "no contest" on the teams' official record. No stat from the game would be counted. At least it resulted in this satirical article. All commenters played along too!
