Governor Easley wagers on UNC baseball
Posted Jun 23, 2007
Gov. Mike Easley has bet Oregon Gov. Ted Kulongoski that the North Carolina baseball team will beat Oregon State in this weekend's College World Series final. Should Carolina wins, Kulongoski will send Easley a basket of Oregon-made products, including Pacific seafood, local cheeses, craft beer and hazelnuts. If Carolina loses, Easley will send a pound of barbecue, a bottle of barbecue sauce and a pint of slaw along with a case of Cheerwine.
