The 2020 version of What Could Have Been Night is a nod to a local legend in which a young boy became separated from his parents as early settlers headed west through Round Rock, eventually growing into a rather hairy hermit. The "Hairy Man" would frequently chase away strangers and hide in trees to scare passersby, sometimes sitting in the tree canopy that grew over the road while dragging his feet on the top of the stagecoaches. One day, he fell in front of a stagecoach and was unfortunately trampled to death, doomed to haunt the shady road that bears his name to this day. The Hairy Men face the Cubs at 6:05 p.m. with a postgame concert by Austin legend Bob Schneider as part of the St. David's Summer Concert Series, presented by Dell Technologies.
