It's Official.....

...I'm a Tar Heel Fan!!

On Friday night, I attended my first "Late Night with Roy."  Michael, Shelia (my coworker) and I enjoyed hours of entertainment at the Dean Dome. Upon entering the dome, everyone was provided a light up Pompom so when the lights went out, it looked like tons of twinkling stars all around the dome.   We watched the UNC Women's' Volleyball team beat Duke followed by a showcase of the Women's basketball team.  They did some funny dance skits and a ten minute scrimmage against each other.  It was funny but the highlight of the evening was yet to come.  

                  

The coaches and the 2009/20010 men's team were announced and out they ran to the roar of the crowd.  They also did some very funny dance skits including one where they spoofed Coach Roy's Rock Band Commercial from last year.

The team performed dance routines from each decade they have won a championship.  The pictures below are from the 50's and all the guys were dressed up as Elvis.

Amidst the skits, they had different video footage.  They had outtakes of the players saying where they were from which was hilarious.  The freshmen did a video spoof of Tyler Hansbrough's AT&T commercial but instead of Tyler at the end finding a little girl's puppy, it was John Henson (complete with two pig tails) finding the NCAA trophy sitting on a porch with Travis and David Wear.  It was too funny!!

The night was a blast and we capped it off by heading to Bailey's for some late night eats and drinks where we were excited to see the Wears and their parents dining too.  They are SO tall but look so young.   Can't wait to see what they can do!!! 

On Saturday, Michael and I headed to the State Fair for some fried goodness and quality people watching.  I had some deep fried Reeses Cups and Michael had some chocolate covered cheesecake on a stick.  We watched some truck pulls, juggling acts and I even dragged Michael through the arts and crafts building.  We couldn't leave without seeing this years LARGEST pumpkin.  

There was one sad part of the fair...we walked over to the livestock area where they had the Grand Champions of various categories.   The Grand Champion Meat Goat was missing from his cage which led me to believe that they actually taste the meat to determine the winner.   Congrats and goodbye little goat.
