Posted Dec 16, 2008
UNC has sold out of its allotment of 22,000 tickets for the 2008 Meineke Car Care Bowl on Saturday, Dec. 27, in Charlotte "This is a tremendous show of support by our fans," says Clint Gwaltney, Associate Athletic Director for Ticket Operations. "In addition to the 22,000 tickets we sold in Chapel Hill, we have been told that many of our fans purchased tickets directly from the Meineke Car Care Bowl. We expect more than 40,000 Tar Heel fans to be at the game." (Tar Heel Blue)
