The match between Chicago Fire and the Vancouver Whitecaps was halted for more than one hour due to thunder and lightning. The Canadian outfit's CM decided to play connect four to keep everyone entertained.

With more than an hour gone, the bad weather halted the match between Chicago Fire and Vancouver Whitecaps. The match was still 0-0 and the Whitecaps' Community Manager decided to have fun on Twitter.

The MLS is clear when it comes to thunder and lightning. When they are in the area, play must be suspended.

But in this case, the delay lasted longer than an hour. Oz Sweeney, a Twitter user, challenged the CM to a game of connect four. If he won, he would get given a club top.

The CM accepted and he beat the Twitter user. Despite his defeat, the Twitter man will be given a shirt anyway.
