Tonight reaffirmed something for me: I live in the greatest place in the world. For no more than the cost of gas money, I got to watch some of the best incoming freshmen in college basketball square off against one another in a tiny gym that holds barely 3,200 folks. There were so many folks trying to enter the building, the PA announcer had to repeatedly chastise folks for blocking the exits. At one point they actually had to stop the second game until the fire marshals were satisfied play could continue. Do you realize how freaking awesome that is?
It really is great to be on Tobacco Road. Even if all that enthusiasm prevented me from seeing last night's game.

As I was driving home (durham)
from work at 7 last night, I had a lot of cars with NCSU stickers on them accompanying me on 147. I was just thinking, “None of you will be able to get into the gym.”
All this hype does bring me back to my days of watching a soon to be freshman Julius Hodge ball out in St. Aug’s summer league.
