Lucas: The Count
Posted Jun 12, 2007
This year, the Tar Heels wanted to make it to Omaha because they already knew what it was like. It's a week or more of being treated like royalty. It's milkshakes at Zesto's and a whiskey filet at the Drover and a triple Kong burger after midnight. It's the big Epcot-looking dome at the zoo. It's tailgating--lots of tailgating. It's 20,000 fans in the stands. It's big-time...with just the right dose of small-town.
