Kenny Price was minutes from being late to a mandatory team meeting. He was being herded into an elevator on the seventh floor of the UNC Children's Hospital, football and hospital staffers were pressing him to leave so he could make his meeting, and he just had one final request. "Ma'am," he said to a hospital staffer, "can you do me a favor? I really need a kid's room number so I can get this poster to him." (Tar Heel Blue)
