The story behind a decal of NC State's mascot eating UNC's mascot

Look, I know that college mascots are pretty much the Platonic ideal of anthropomorphism. That said, I’m really weirded out by a wolf in a sweater feasting upon the bones of a ram in a North Carolina sailor hat. It’s...a lot. (North Carolina Rabbit Hole)
