Friday nights were Midnight Special, Saturday morning was scooby doo and super friends then some Abbott and Costello movie. Saturday night was SNL. Sunday was playing until 6 pm then it was Wonderful World of Disney. Then I discovered Football. Saturday and Sundays would never be the same again. Except I still watched Midnight Special and SNL.
Pardon the pedantry but can it be called a ‘tradition’ if it’s new? Seems more like a ‘practice’ or something less formal until it’s done a few times. Are they going to come early, be loud and wear blue also?
Well that ram or goat like thing on their logos and t shirts has horns... so hook em tarheels or something. I’ve been told a “Tar Heel” is actually a reference to NC soldiers in the civil war or maybe even the revolutionary war. They would stand fast and hold the line, and they wouldn’t turn and run.
Then again, it could be roofers or highway repair workers who do their work barefooted (ouch!), or barefoot hikers or hunters walking through the pine forest getting sap on their feet? With Mack Brown, they'll recruit well. Even with a goofy mascot name.
"NORTH CAROLINA!" ....."TARHEELS!"... "NORTH CAROLINA! " ...TARHEELS!"... just doesn't have the same flow....
