It may have started out at a trick, but it was certainly a treat for students at UNC. Dozens of people dressed as Spider-Man invaded one of the libraries on campus Tuesday night. According to UNC's independent student newspaper, The Daily Tar Heel, roughly 40-60 individuals arrived at Davis Library around 10 p.m., all dressed as the iconic web-slinger. (FOX 46 Charlotte)
