Baseball fans are familiar with this term. The name comes from giving outdoor sporting events spectators, more specifically Baseball, a ticket for return admission for a game that is postponed or cancelled due to rain. The refund is not compulsory. The rain cheque was originally an insurance taken out by event organisers against the possibility of rain affecting the attendance rate of an open-air event, with consequent loss of gate money. Such insurance might be cheaper in summer, unless you are in England.
