"Free Play from Doc's Sports. #350 Take North Carolina State Wolfpack (pk) over Notre Dame Fighting Irish (Saturday 12 pm ABC) We used the Wolfpack as a top selection last week and we will continue to ride them with this low number especially in Raleigh. Notre Dame is vastly overrated this season and NC State will pick apart their defense for 60 minutes. The Irish gave up 33 points last week to a rebuilding Syracuse squad and I would expect the Wolfpack to go over the 40-point mark in this game. "

^^can't tell if sarcastic or not... but WVU did a study on that. since they've sold beer, they have less pregame binge incidents, according to their campus police/ALE

I would say if NCSU followed suit it might help some, even if by a small bit.

"RALEIGH, N.C. - Wolfpack Nation will celebrate the 50th anniversary of Carter-Finley in a variety of ways during Saturday's game versus Notre Dame. The Diamond The football squad will take the field wearing throwback helmets and jerseys. The uniform will feature the red diamond logo, which was brought to NC State by head coach Dick Sheridan in 1986, his first year as head coach. The Wolfpack wore that helmet for the next 14 seasons, until going back to the traditional Block S in 2000. The diamond logo will also be featured on flags featured on the stadium east side. Special 50th Anniversary game shirts featuring the diamond logo are available exclusively at GoPack.com, Wolfpack Outfitters in the Talley Student Union, and at the concession tents at Carter-Finley. Other items featuring five vintage helmet designs and the #CF50 logo are available at those locations, as well Cracker Barrel, Alumni Hall, and the Red & White shop. Click HERE to purchase. $50,000 Giveaway In honor of #CF50, the Wolfpack will be giving away $50,000 in the Pack Payout. Fans who stay in their seats during halftime could be selected to win. If the Wolfpack scores a touchdown in the first minute of the third quarter, 10 lucky fans will win $5,000 each. Throwback Concession Prices If cheering on the Wolfpack makes you hungry, concessions stands throughout the stadium will also be celebrating like it's 1966, with special anniversary-priced popcorn for just $1 and footlong hot dogs for the price of a regular hotdog ($3.00). There will also be a new item offered at all of the large stands (A, B, C, D, E, F) - a $5 hamburger. Special Celebrations The families of stadium namesakes Nick Carter (1902-1972), Harry Carter (1908-1990), and A.E. Finley (1895-1985) will also be recognized during the game, as will Jim Brenner, who has served as an usher since the stadium first opened its doors on Oct. 8, 1966. The Power Sound of the South will perform a special 50th Anniversary show during halftime. Join the Conversation Fans are encouraged to use the hashtag #CF50 during the game and their tweets or photos could end up on the video board."

I need someone with good reading fundamentals to interpret the bold part for me. Are they giving away $50k at halftime and then 10 x $5k if the Pack scores to start the third quarter?

10/6/2016 1:07:35 PM

^No lump sum of $50,000, just the 10 fans IF we score a TD in the first minute of the 3rd quarter. So basically if we get the kickoff to start the game, there is no incentive to be in your seat during halftime haha.

10/6/2016 1:16:24 PM

10/60,000 chances... I think I'll go enjoy my halftime with a beer.

10/6/2016 1:27:47 PM

unless they choose it with scanned tickets

10/6/2016 1:33:24 PM

tomorrow is gonna suck

friend offered me an extra ticket to the game.

a month ago i would've said yes without thinking twice...but had to turn it down. don't wanna sit out in that rain

10/7/2016 8:29:08 AM

I'm lucky enough to have seats under the over hang, we still get wet but this is going to be so sloppy.

I'm thinking this helps Bambard!

10/7/2016 8:31:34 AM

^^ huh?

10/7/2016 8:32:51 AM

oh PackGuitar

10/7/2016 8:36:14 AM

^^lol this guy

10/7/2016 8:36:49 AM

you know thats just the projected path and not the entire size of the storm, right? We are going to get several inches of rain tomorrow

10/7/2016 8:36:49 AM

Yea an extreme wind might help bombard, better chance of his shanks winding back between the goal posts.

It cant hurt

10/7/2016 8:52:20 AM

^^^^^ tomorrow should be a total washout, man.

10/7/2016 8:57:38 AM

for sure... but that graph looked like the storm was sitting right over all of NC. so....... thats the disconnect.

10/7/2016 9:07:44 AM

You do realize the storm is hundreds of miles across?

THIS MOTHERFUCKER CAN BE SEEN FROM SPACE!!!

[Edited on October 7, 2016 at 9:09 AM. Reason : as]

10/7/2016 9:08:57 AM

yea, different models of a trajectory too, i just hadnt seen the one where it completely hovers (yes hundreds of miles) straight over NC. thats all. moving on...

10/7/2016 9:15:45 AM

So who is still really planning on going out there tomorrow?

10/7/2016 9:29:33 AM

We will be out around 9am. Concrete blocks for tents. 1 tent over the cooker/1 tent to cover us. tarp on the ground.

10/7/2016 9:30:43 AM

really don't want to miss this game.... but really don't want to be in that weather.

10/7/2016 9:33:54 AM

I'll be out there, not sure when though. Might try to move down from my upper level seats if not many people show. Not excited to park in the Faculty/Staff lot that's completely covered by trees. Will definitely bring rain gear and plenty of towels/change of clothes.

I'm not wasting effort tailgating if I'm actually tailgating am I?

^apparently he's one of the dumbasses that thinks the cone of uncertainty is a fucking rainfall forecast map.

10/7/2016 9:56:39 AM

well teach me more... im curious here. yall seem very into this.

10/7/2016 10:06:49 AM

this here map shows only the predicted potential locations of the center of the storm. It has nothing to do with the rain, wind, size, etc. of the storm. Only where the center may be at the indicated time.




[Edited on October 7, 2016 at 10:10 AM. Reason : .]

10/7/2016 10:08:25 AM

yes, i get that. the rainfall map shows nothing off the coast of NC in that graphic as far as rainfall (so im assuming that would mean the entire storm is over the state of NC). and based on what you just re-posted about the possibilities for the center of the storm (which i understand fully) it still doesnt tie to the rainfall one in my opinion. but i havent followed this storm at all. just what ive been hearing about it shifting east. yall know more than me so im curious.

you deal with earl too much on this board and figure everyone just trolls like him, not the case.

10/7/2016 10:15:35 AM

i know... moving on.

10/7/2016 10:17:13 AM

^^^^wat

every rainfall forecast I've seen for this storm shows rain predictions over the ocean and over land, including NC

Some locally produced forecast maps may not waste time on refining rainfall predictions over the ocean, ya know, because, it's the ocean.

They just upped the predicted possible rainfall amount from 5.35" to 7.17" for Raleigh.

AND

$10 will get you into the game with your choice of seating I am sure...
