Rathskeller Could Reopen This Fall

Posted Aug 25, 2011
It’s where you took your future wife on your first date. Or where you burned your tongue on the flaming hot Gambler. Or carved your name on the bricks. And if you’re Michael Jordan, it’s the place Dean Smith took you on your recruiting visit to UNC. And, thanks to the efforts of one determined UNC grad, students and alumni will again be able to relive memories and create new ones when the legendary Ram’s Head Rathskeller reopens later this year.
