The start of the Arizona-Weber State game at Arizona Stadium was delayed for over two hours due to nearby lightning. The game will now start around 9:10 p.m.
Less than hour from kickoff, the handful of fans and staffers at Arizona Stadium were ordered to moved to the covered concourses of Arizona Stadium.
Arizona-Weber State was originally scheduled to kick off at 7 p.m. on ESPN+, but will now kick off following a 45-minute countdown, which started at 8:25 p.m. Arizona lifted its no re-entry policy for fans who exited Arizona Stadium.
It is the first weather delay at Arizona Stadium since the 2009 season opener against Central Michigan.
