Real Salt Lake’s Leagues Cup match against Club Leon was postponed due to torrential rain on Thursday night. The press box at America First Field suffered damage from the rain, leading to chaos when a raccoon fell from the ceiling tiles.
A video captured the raccoon making its way towards the press box popcorn machine, while most people tried to keep their distance.
After being chased out of the press box, the raccoon clung to the railing above the concourse. Real Salt Lake staff attempted to catch the animal using a broom and a trash can, but it escaped.
The raccoon was eventually captured, but not before providing some entertainment for the soccer fans who couldn’t watch the game.
The match has been rescheduled for Friday night at 7 p.m. local time, with Real Salt Lake and Club Leon competing for a spot in the Leagues Cup Round of 16.
