To Tar Heels fans: Let's hear it for 'Spooooon!'
Posted Oct 7, 2016
Brandon Spoon has been selected as the Tar Heel Legend for North Carolina’s football game against Virginia Tech. He’ll be honored during a brief on-field recognition during the first half. Spoon would like nothing more to hear the familiar crowd reaction after he made a tackle during his playing days that stretch back nearly 20 years. That would be “Spoooooooon!”
