Day One: Wings, Basketball... Tornadoes?


Your trusty broadcasters have arrived in the promised land (better known as Raleigh, the capitol of North Carolina), and were greeted with sheets of rain pouring down from the heavens. The drive down was an uneventful one, filled with the customary WMUC pit-stop at Sonic Drive-In (get the cheese tots, they're absolutely worth it). On arrival, we decided to take in our surroundings and explore the Greater Raleigh area. After investigation, it was determined to not be worth it.

Being the sports fans we are, we decided to take in the NCAA Tournament games at a local establishment. We enjoyed the wings, but the basketball games left a lot to be desired (leaving John to say "This tournament sucks" about 79 times). Yours truly survived the hot sauce, while my fellow broadcasters opted to stay safe.

But right as the games were starting, the local CBS station decided to cut to a picture of a weather radar showing a MASSIVE block of red hovering directly over Raleigh. Tornado warnings are not so fun. We did see a tornado, but it was only on TV. This is not it.
As we finish watching the second helping of basketball games and prepare to turn in for the evening, I'd like to remind you that there is actually basketball to be played here in Raleigh, and it'll get started tomorrow from the RBC Center at 12:00 with Baylor-Louisville, before the Terps take the court against the Vanderbilt Commodores. WMUC Sports coverage will start at 2:00, with a 2:30 scheduled tip. Hope you'll listen, and we'll check in tomorrow with our thoughts on the game
