Wake Forest uses cutouts from 'The Bachelor' in crowd to honor former athlete turned contestant

Posted Jan 20, 2021
This season of 'The Bachelor' features a former college football player named Matt James. I only happen to know that because Matt attended Wake Forest like I did and people have been texting/emailing me to tell me about it. Wake Forest got creative with its virtual fans by putting cutouts of him, host Chris Harrison, and the contestants in the stands. (Golf Digest)
