Current, former Tar Heels attend Obama rally in Chapel Hill


An interesting story from my sister, Robin, who attended the Barack Obama rally in Chapel Hill last night:

I went to the Barack Obama rally at UNC tonight. spoke and said "this is why you stay in college for four years!" then turned around and pointed at Tywon Lawson who was in the crowd behind him and said "Yeah...I'm talking to you!" I looked over and it was Ty, and sitting together. Everyone went crazy. had an Obama sign that he used to cover up his face. It was really funny.

The guys seemed really excited about Obama...waving their signs around, taking pictures. So in one night I saw , , and . Very cool. I also saw the UNC blue team player (?) who had the hilarious mustache during the tournament. Happy to report that he still has the mustache.
