Shoe Carnival will resume normal hours on December 26 to kick off their after Christmas and New Years sales. Shoe Carnival will also close early on Christmas Eve, December 24 at most locations. Stores may be open limited hours on New Years Eve and/or New Years Day.
What I find interesting is that baseball seems to have a pace of game problem because everyone says that it does. The average game lasts 3 hours, but then the average NFL game lasts 3 hours (they usually schedule two blocks of games on Sundays, three hours apart). They huddle in the NFL between plays to talk it over.
The average time to complete a nine-inning game in the 1970s -- not including on-field delays -- was two hours and 30 minutes. That increased to an average of 2:57 in the 10-year span from 2000-09. Through Thursday, this year's league average was 2:51, according to the Elias Sports Bureau. In the playoffs, game times have been longer.
