💙 Why The California Allstars had to cancel (parts of) their showcase
Sometimes, things don't go as expected… A truck apparently hit a fire hydrant, causing it to flood the arena where the showcase was to be held.
Some teams were still able to perform in the gym (videos here), but the rest had to reschedule for another day:
