Raleigh and the Triangle - A Visitor's and Local's Guide Pt. 2

[hblueridgegal]

I love my UNC classics.. warts and all..slept on the sidewalk to get my tickets for the first game in the Dean Dome back in the day. The Bosh is my favorite...love the summer air and the vibe and the doggies. The ladies games in Carmichael are the spot these days.

I would rather keep the priceless gems than have newer, generic replacements.

Is it safe to wear my Columbus jersey when I visit ?

Carolina’s cool.

we're generally cool with other teams fans unless you really show your ass here (figuratively and possibly literally).

 

[HisIceness]

Is it safe to wear my Columbus jersey when I visit ?

No. We in Carolina dislike Columbus. Their college football team is better than any team we have including the NFL. Their residents take up space on our beaches. We think the chili is weird. If you come wearing a Columbus jersey you will be screamed and cursed at. Wearing Columbus anything is a sin that we cannot abide.



Nah you good no one will care.

In PNC probably, but don’t go into a Bojangles wearing the wrong colors. You will get got.

Also in Washington as I saw in November.

Silly question, perhaps. How easy will it be me for to grab a Charlotte FC jersey in town?

I want the purple away shirt, potentially with Scott Arfield's name printed. I'm over for the Blackhawks game, and Scott Arfield played for my team here in Scotland. I'm actually in Charlotte for the Checkers game on 18th Feb - but the team store is closed on Sundays.

A place like Dicks Sporting Goods might have what you are looking for.

Which part of the state are you moving to?

Wilson.

Wilson.

Since I don’t believe I said why before.

I’m one of the managers (not general managers but apart of the management team) opening one of the first Wawa’s in North Carolina.

I'm glad Wawa is finally making its way down here. I've tried explaining it to people and they just think it's like a Sheetz.

Sorry man we're full. Try Florida instead they need more people

Nah for real welcome

I've been to Wawa in Florida, their breakfast sandwiches and coffee are quite good.

Sheetz is fine I guess but I think those people will in time like Wawa better.

Welcome to NC.

I lived in King of Prussia area (and worked in Landsdale) for about a year back in the mid-late 80s so I am familiar with Wawa. I was extremely close to making it permanent but ended up getting a job offer elsewhere that was too good to pass up.

Very cool. Definitely room for a few Wawa's in the area.

I never thought I’d take this jump but I’m getting overall tired of things up here.

I think the goal is 24 by the end of this year. My number could be off though.

 

[tarheelhockey]

Wawa and Bucc-ee’s both entering NC at the same time is certainly a moment in the culture.

I made the jump 20 years ago. I lived in the North East / New England for a long time and then moved down here. Weather was a big reason.

I'll be retirement age within a decade (man that's hard to write) and I'm currently of the mind that there's no way I want to retire up here in Maine. Summers are nice, sure, but the winters really blow.

 

[hblueridgegal]

I imagine this will be a hit.

“The largest indoor pickleball + golf complex in the US” is quite the specific flex.
