ABILENE, Texas (KTAB/KRBC) - The Crosstown Showdown has been delayed due to lightning. Kickoff between Abilene High School and Cooper High School will not occur at the originally scheduled time of 7 p.m.

The Cooper High tunnel run, which was set to include Abilene ISD elementary students, has also been called off due to safety concerns. Organizers say the event will be rescheduled, and students wearing tunnel run shirts will still be admitted free of charge.

At the West Texas Fair & Rodeo, heavy rainfall has left the track near the Tractor Pull too wet for use. Conditions will be reassessed at 6 p.m. ahead of the event’s 7 p.m. start time. Fair organizers encourage attendees to follow the event’s Facebook page for the latest updates.
