UNC vs NCSU, my first ACC Basketball Game

February 1st, 2014...

Saturday is a brilliant day for sleeping (at least I think it is...)

So, I was enjoying my sleep like I normally do on Saturdays, even though the sun had already brightened the day.

Then, at sometime around 11 AM, my roommate was like,

"Hey, I'm going to the NC State game!"

I was still half asleep, so I was like

"Yeah, lucky you, have fun." 

and I lied back in bed.

Few minutes later, my roommate called me

"Hey, my friend got two more tickets to the NC State game, you wanna come?"

and I was like

"Sure, count me in!"

and I ran as fast as I could to the Dean Smith Center.

This was the ticket I got from my roommate.
I had 2 of these, until I gave 1 to one of my friends who actually managed to come.

As soon as I got the tickets, I tried calling everyone in my contacts.
But it's Saturday, not only were some of my friends bombarded with assignments, but many were also still sleeping.
Thankfully, one of my friends, actually managed to wake up and come to the game!!

But it took him a long time to get to the Dean Dome because he lived on North Campus.
But still, thank goodness one of the tickets didn't go to waste!!

He finally made it, and we were ready to go in!!

 Since, both of us didn't have lunch or breakfast, we decided to buy something eat here.

Aaaaaaand....
I bought a hotdog....
which was definitely less than enough.
I really regretted not having bought two hotdogs.

 Oh well, time to watch the game.

 Whoa, look at all these people!!

The Dean Smith Center was filled all the way to the top.
The last time I was here for the vs UNCG game, it wasn't as crowded as this.

This day we were going against the NC State Wolfpacks, whom are wearing the red jerseys.

My roommate and his friend watched the entire game on the risers.
I really wished I could be there too....

 Well, gotta focus on the game.

 Go Heels!

Yeah! let's get that 3-pointer!

 and the 1st half was over!

 with North Carolina leading by 17 points!
Yay!

During the halftime, women's basketball team alumni came out on the center of the court.
There were lots of applause. (sadly, I don't remember what exactly was happening back then...)

 It's always nice to look at all of the honored jerseys.
(I've heard recently that Marcus Paige's is going to be on there. Congratulations, Marcus Paige!! ^_^)



This is the Ramsclub video, they normally show this during the half-time, but this time they played it during one of the timeouts in the 2nd half.

 Now back to the game with the 2nd half!



Yeah! Get Those Free Throws!!!



AAAAAAhhh.......
So Close.........
There weren't many dunks in this game, so imagine how awesome it would've been if that alley-oop actually got in.




Tar Heel Victory!!

All players of the two teams were shaking hands with one another after a good game.

Carolina Victory!!
Tar Heels won the game 70 to 84.

Cheerleaders lined up at the center of the court and sang 'Hark the Sound.'

After the game, my friend went back to his dorm to get some extra sleep, and I headed back to mine to start doing some of the homework.

Too bad this is the last game I had the chance to actually go to the Dean Dome to watch the game.
I really regret not having registered for the Duke game that was supposed to be in a few weeks....

Oh well, I should make sure I don't miss to do so next school year!
