A nominee for tackling dummy
The spring football game at N.C. State was much more than a glorified practice this season. Named for the late Kay Yow, admission to Saturday's scrimmage at Carter-Finley Stadium was free but donations were accepted to help fund the fight against breast cancer.
And that brings us to a rumor I sincerely hope is untrue. I didn't see it with my own eyes, but I and others heard that someone was wandering the parking lots selling fake pink tickets to the tailgaters so they could get into the game.
If that's true, that's despicable.
And if that's true, I sincerely hope they catch the grifter and make the punishment fit the crime: Make the perp serve as a tackling dummy at a couple of N.C. State practices.
