Long answer: the threat of weather scared off a lot of people. Stuff was already getting cancelled for Saturday as of mid-day Friday. People were expecting a mid-day deluge (and they got it). Started the game with ~1500 people.

Before the game even began it had started pouring down (https://imgur.com/a/3cwQL7F)
It eased up a bit by the time the game started. ~5 minutes into the game, it gets worse again, but with added lightning. So...delay time.

2 1/2 hours later, still raining, but the lightning had stopped, so they got out there to resume the game. Continued to rain on and off throughout the rest of the game (although not as heavy as earlier).

By the time the game had ended, we were down to pretty much football players family members and a few "die-hards" (like me).
