Great news for me, as I have season tickets but hardly ever go unless it is a night game. Hate going at 1 on Sundays and missing the rest of the games, while sweating my ass off and usually watching the Fins get blasted. For the first time this season, the Dolphins have no Sunday or Monday night games. But now they have a Friday night game. And I will be there. Great news 
NEW YORK -- The game between the Miami Dolphins and the Kansas City Chiefs was rescheduled to Friday night to beat Hurricane Wilma's arrival in Florida.
The game will begin at 7 p.m. Friday instead of Sunday afternoon, which is about when Wilma is expected to hit Florida's southwestern coast.
NFL spokesman Greg Aiello said broadcast and television details were being worked out.
It's the third time since the start of the 2004 season that the Dolphins have rescheduled a home game because of a looming hurricane. Last year's home opener against Tennessee was played a day early because of Hurricane Ivan, and the Dolphins' Week 3 game with Pittsburgh was pushed back 7½ hours by Hurricane Jeanne.
A celebration of the team's 40th anniversary and Dan Marino's induction into the Hall of Fame has also been rescheduled, the Miami Herald reported.
Marino will now receive his Hall of Fame ring at halftime of the Nov. 6 game against the Atlanata Falcons, the Herald reported.
"Nobody in this room, with all of our power and might put together, can have anything to do with where it goes," Dolphins coach Nick Saban said. "What we can try to do is have something to do with preparing for the game and doing our job well and having pride in the performance of what we have to do." The Associated Press contributed to this report.
