Taking The Party On The Road
Just because the Tar Heels go on the road to play football doesn’t mean Carolina
fans have to miss out on some of the home-game atmosphere. The GAA and the
Rams Club sponsor pregame tailgate parties for alumni and other fans who make
the road trip and those who live nearby and want to take advantage of a chance to
support the team in person. There are “Go Heels” giveaway items for all, the chance
to win great door prizes and visits from the Marching Tar Heels, cheerleaders and
Rameses the mascot. ■
A tailgate isn’t really
big enough to hold all
the fun that follows
Carolina’s away
games. Tables and
tents are part of the
Tar Heel encampments for the
pregame festivities.
Fans can meet up
with other alumni and
friends for picnics or
just to get pumped up
before the game gets
under way.
