NC State Basketball......oh well, always next year!!

Our buddy/owner of the marina in Oriental invited us to accompany him to the NC State basketball game again last night.



It was CHILLY!!! Come on, Duane, let's make for the RBC Center, quick!! Really, the season pass parking is really close, very nice and right at the door. I'm wearing my NC State shirt that Robert says is obnoxious...


Our gracious host, John Cox....did I really say gracious in describing John??? I agree with the guy on the step below him - who is this crazy dude???


It actually was a good game 1st half - NC State was up by 10 points for a good while.....then came 2nd half....ugh.



Oh well - this was kindof fun to watch at a break in the action.

One of John's friends (he seems to know everyone in the stadium...) was chosen to play a game on the court for a $500 jewelry certificate. They blindfolded him - put his wife at the other side of the arena - and let the crowd tell him how to find his wife. Mr. Wolfe stayed with him - and Mrs. Wolfe stayed with his wife.




As he turned the wrong way, the crowd boo'd.


The crowd really boo'd loud when he was walking this way.....


But they cheered loudly when he finally got moving in the right direction. I didn't get a photo of
his wife - but he did find her and won the $500 prize!! A good, fun time!
