Breakfast of Champions

We here at WMUC are a superstitious bunch. And, as we've covered before, we also love our fast food. With that in mind, we mention to you the joy that is Biscuitville.
Unlike the other WMUC fast-food vice, Sonic, we can certainly understand if you've never heard of Biscuitville. It's a North Carolina-based chain that has all of its locations, save for a couple in southern Virginia, in the Tar Heel state. It's unique in that they make all of their biscuits right in front of you - they even have a window to look through to see the designated biscuit-maker crafting their signature item in what's a perversely delicious peep-show kind of situation - and that they're open only from 6 A.M. until 2 P.M. Don't like breakfast? Too. Damn. Bad. (OK, they do have some lunch-type items on their menu as well, but what's the point?)
Anyway, the superstition extends back to Greensboro and the ACC tournament. There happened to be a Biscuitville directly across the street from our hotel, and being curious, we checked it out, and deemed it to be delicious. Maryland defeated Wake Forest later in the day. The next day, we went to Biscuitville again, and the Terps knocked off North Carolina. Day three, another trip to Biscuitville, another Maryland win.
Coincidence? Certainly. But don't try and tell us that.
Imagine my joy when the WMUC hotel ended up being less than a mile away from Raleigh's Biscuitville. Not intentional, I swear. (Hal fails to believe this)
As you know (and as we'll cover in, oh, 15 minutes), today is game day. And as you can see, Biscuitville was the order of the day this morning as well:

Does this mean Maryland will defeat Vanderbilt today, and bring the Terps' record on Biscuitville days to 4-0? We'll leave that to you to decide.

John: Is that you in the hat devouring something at Biscuitville?
Spent a happy year in Greensboro (my first TV job out of Syracuse), but that was in the late '50s before ACC became such insanity.
Go Terps! And keep up the good (and entertaining blog!

Biscuitville for breakfast on Monday, anyone?
9:30 AM at the Raleigh Biscuitville - we'll be there. If you're there too, make sure to say hi.
