He also designed those awesome UNC basketball jerseys with just the interlocking NC on the front.

That worked out well for him.

^haha, yeah those were ugly. IIRC, Michigan had similar ones as well. But I can't seem to find a picture of them.

12/6/2011 3:49:35 PM

Anyone tailgating to the game?

If so, where are you parking? On Parkwhiz.com, they only have lots that open at 4. I obviously wanna get there sooner.

12/6/2011 3:53:41 PM

I am staying in a hotel right beside the stadium so I am not sure what we will do. We have a suite we can "tailgate" in but it is still not the same as being out in a parking lot. We may just set up a table somewhere, lol.

^^it'll be tough with it being a Tuesday game. A lot of the tailgating lots are employee parking lots during the work week

12/6/2011 4:09:32 PM

Yeah but that week is dead for a lot of bankers anyway. It'll be easy to be up and running by noon.

12/6/2011 4:13:18 PM

cheapest front row 50-yard line seats I can find are $175

uptown will be a ghosttown that week... really don't see commuters having any impact on the tailgating for the game... it didn't seem to last year for the meineke bowl with clemson/usf.

12/6/2011 6:11:14 PM

I hope not. I'm staying out in Cornelius (some friends live out there, seeing them the next day) and not looking forward to Charlotte's crappy ass traffic when heading to the game.

Bowl swag lists are out (stolen from backingthepack.com)

"Belk Bowl Bank of America Stadium, Charlotte Tuesday, Dec. 27, 8 p.m., ESPN Estimated $400 shopping trip to Belk’s flagship store in Charlotte, Fossil watch"

I hope they put it in a nice bag, because handing the players a card and a watch will be kinda underwhelming.

Then again, UNC players are getting a watch, a hat, a football, and presumably a hardy handshake.


[Edited on December 6, 2011 at 6:30 PM. Reason : Yes I'm ignoring the "gift suites" which are probably fully of decent stuff]

12/6/2011 6:16:15 PM

Fossil watch? Bowl committees must be tryin to get it in

12/6/2011 6:38:52 PM

I remember one year at one of those pizza bowls (papa johns, little ceasars, digiorno's, whatever), the prize was like a t shirt, a timex watch and free pizza. That was IT!

12/6/2011 6:46:48 PM

Fun story.
Last year one of the backups' mother complained to me about having to carry his new flat screen home from Orlando.

Free flat screens are such a hassle. Especially when you don't even play in the game.

Bobcats home opener across the street from the bowl pre game activity at the epi center on Monday the 26th an playing the heat the day after the bowl game. Lucky timing for sports fans coming to the bowl game! As for the tailgating the best lot will be the areas around 3rd and church an 3rd an mint! Hit me up

My brother-in-law called the WPC to see what tickets they were allotted for the Belk Bowl.
They were given Sections 106-109, 114-125, 224-230, 308-312, 319-323,
516-521. None of these tickets are within the 10 yard lines on either
side and most are in the corners. See link to map for Sections:

http://www.panthers.com/stadium/stadium-diagram.html

Also, there were only 2500 Club Level seats.

I'm glad I jumped on my tickets in sec. 346 because my rank would probably have gotten me some of their worst tickets

[Edited on December 7, 2011 at 2:59 PM. Reason : sdf]

12/7/2011 2:58:27 PM

the only decent sections I can find 4 seats in a row are on the south side. anyone know if it will be nothing but louisville fans or a mixture?

12/7/2011 3:45:51 PM

It's the Big East side, but at the rate State fans are buying tickets, I would think a mixture.

LSU/Bama playing for a crystal ball we be playing for glass ball

12/7/2011 9:14:05 PM

Damn, the acc side seats moved fast the last two days.

12/7/2011 9:21:28 PM

I think they've even opened up another section to sell on the ACC side

12/7/2011 9:24:32 PM

Im going to check now. This new virtual seat selector ticketmaster has is awesome!

12/7/2011 10:14:51 PM

i bought 4 tickets off the gopack site the night of the selection show...i'm assuming they are 4 in a row...nothing on the site confirms or denies it...anybody know??

12/7/2011 10:49:30 PM

I think they would be 4 in a row, but I think the location will be left up to how they fill the ticket orders based on WPC rank.

12/7/2011 10:54:21 PM

I'd think you could check the confirmation email

good plan

12/8/2011 10:15:43 AM

WPC charged me but I still don't know what section my tickets are for. It doesn't really bother me because I'm going to the game regardless of where they are, but it would be nice to know.

12/8/2011 10:18:17 AM

when i was a little kid, i used to call my belt, my "belk". /true story

+1 to getting off the UNC page.

12/8/2011 10:26:10 AM

I can't wait to hear all the local idiots talk about going to the "Belks" Bowl.

12/8/2011 10:33:06 AM

Ha! I used to say "Belks" growing up. You're so right.

12/8/2011 10:33:53 AM

My grandma says shit like Belks's and Kmarts

Fuckin grandma

12/8/2011 10:35:32 AM

I still say Kmart's like there's an apostrophe S on it, dog

12/8/2011 11:00:11 AM

+1 to getting off the UNC page.

There's smart... and then there's Kmart's'smart.
