This makes me physically sick.

Going to the big Wrexham vs. Chelsea FC soccer game in Chapel Hill on Wednesday? We could have a few showers or isolated storms around the region as the game gets going but it doesn't look like a washout by any means. I'll see you there! @wncn

How many times do we have to say, "Remember, these are wild animals."

Does anyone know if there will be alcohol sales in Kenan Stadium during the Chelsea vs Wrexham game on July 19?
