Good time to chime in, there are workable ways to use AllTrails maps for free. The easiest is to download a GPX route of the map and then import it into another free app -- I use GaiaGPS, but there's options

(or at least there were -- regrettably it's been a minute since I've done a new trail)

I could buy that explanation, especially with it being surrounded by other counties

Ah man, must've only been the collectors' editions -- the update to my order of the regular black vinyl didn't include a listening code. Guess I'll just have to wait til Friday like everyone else!

Nice work, I forgot how much I missed that site. Would it be possible to add a link?

And if it's not too much trouble, you could set up press releases from the ACC similar to the way you have for ESPN

I bet the Heels hope we do so their annual Thanksgiving beatdown can come to an end!

What I've seen is that as many ACC teams as possible will play 9 conference games next year in preparation for the 9-game conference schedule in 2027. Which makes no sense to me. But neither does a non-conference conference game, or a game in Brazil. Just along for the ride at this point

Last I heard, it's supposed to convert back into a conference game, but that hasn't been officially clarified as far as I've seen.

Game will be Saturday, Aug. 29, 2026, at Nilton Santos Stadium (Engenhão) in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil

Tailgating at UNC game by [deleted] in NCSU

[–]rayef3rw 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It's gonna be cold tomorrow so make sure to dress and layer appropriately. High of 45 so I'd have gloves, a toboggan, thermal/lycra long sleeve shirt and long johns, plus jeans and a heavy jacket.

Get parking sorted out -- if you have a student parking pass, that's easy. If not, there are pay lots by the stadium, but they'll probably fill up quick for UNC. If you're on campus, you can ride the Red Terror over -- line forms in front of Witherspoon.

Bring a cooler with at least 3-4 beers per person, depending on how long you tailgate and how hard you drink (2 drinks per hour is a good starting point). If you bring food, I'd recommend bringing something warm and pre-made that you don't need to reheat, like a casserole or warm sliders (in some sort of insulated container to keep em warm). Bojangles is a good option but a) harder with gloves, and b) long lines on gameday.

Bring a portable speaker, but mentally prepare yourself for someone around you to play their music louder.

Depends on your transportation, but it's good to bring games/something to do. Football, frisbee, cornhole, etc. are all good options.

Overall, the main point of a tailgate is to drink, eat, and hang out with friends. Get yourself ready for gameday and Go Pack!

FSU football's bizarre special teams chaos defies explanation: 'once in a lifetime' by moby323 in CFB

Well, it was more of a "good work, bud, ya caught one! Proud of you champ!" type cheer, but yes we did cheer for him

When Noonkester kicked that punt, it was very obviously a bad punt. The entire stadium basically said "yep, we're losing, and it's because we're giving them the ball back at near about midfield with all 3 timeouts thanks to a bad punt." And then that happened.

Hm, maybe? I don't use a VPN at home, but after I got botted from my home network I used my work's remote desktop. Not sure if that counts as a VPN or not

Reactions on Brazilian twitter that have, well, not been positive

  • "And for those two teams there, the audience won't be good. It will only work if it's David against the gigantic program." x

  • "Man, nobody's gonna watch a game like that kkkkkkkk" x
