I was at a Chiefs/Bears preseason Monday night game in '96 that was the same way. I couldn't have been any wetter had I been swimming in nearby Lake Michigan.
The funny thing was I remember my buddy and I were completely miserable until we just said **** it and gave up even attempting to stay dry under the various items of overpowered plastic we had. After that, it was okay. It was August, and while it was raining buckets it wasn't cold.
They actually stopped and then cancelled the game in the third quarter due to nearby lightning strikes. That was the first time I ever saw a game get called early because of weather. Of course it was only preseason.
Before the game started I got Marcus Allen's autograph on the bill of my hat. It was in a bag with my wallet; the only two things on my person that night that remained dry.
