Queen Elizabeth II attended a UNC football game in 1957
Posted Sep 8, 2022
Queen Elizabeth, who died Wednesday at age 96, requested to see her first American football game during her first visit to the United States as a monarch. Coach Jim Tatum’s Tar Heels were ranked No. 14 in the country but lost 21–7 at Byrd Stadium to Maryland on Oct. 29, with the Queen watching from a special box that was on the UNC side of the field.
