Not that any of you care, but Paige and I are off to Chapel Hill tomorrow to meet the UNC basketball coach Roy Williams!!! We have a cocktail party with the Rams Club (similar to booster club, I guess) and we get to meet him. I am the envy of my friends who like UNC basketball!!

We then spend the night in Chapel Hill and will attend the UNC - Virginia football game ot Saturday. It probalby will be a massacre (Virginia's favor) but we are meeting friends so we will have a great time!

Have a great weekend!

Anthony

Anthony, this sounds like a lot of fun. I hope you two have a great time.

Anthony, considering that you are a UNC fan, meeting Roy Williams is a big deal!

For two years, I kept a picture of Bobby Cremmins (former GT BBall coach for all you non-Acc'ers)and me on my refrigerator. We happened to be at the same party and a friend took a picture. I still have it somewhere. Was a big deal to me.

Hope you and Paige have a fun weekend. You should get Roy's autograph for your boys. They'll think it's cool when they are a little older.

have a great weekend, you guys!!

Anthony, Sounds like a good time to me. Have fun with Roy. :ch: :ch: :ch: I'll be in Chapel Hill, too, but not around the campus area. Looks to be a nice weekend.

Donna, I always thought Bobby was cool!!! Great hair and a good coach.

Anthony .. how cool is THAT? Have you been to the museum in the stadium with all of Dean's trophys? It's pretty spectacular.

Enjoy the visit and hope UNC makes it respectable against Virginia. Cheers, Anne

Now Anthony I can appriciate this.
have a great time.

Anthony - how was your party with Roy? I met him once when he was at KU and he was very gracious!

I was wondering about Anthony's evening with Roy, too. BTW, the Heels did squeak out a "W" over Virginia on Saturday. 7-5

Anthony must be too busy breaking jaws and filling teeth to get back to us especially since the Tar Heels won. Just kidding.

Things have been a bit crazy around here this week - I am on 'trauma call' for the hospital and cover any and all trauma above the shoulders - busy busy

About our meeting... We arrived and happened to enter about the same time as the Coach. We did not get to speak to him at first. There was quite a crowd and I was worried that we would miss out. After he finished eating appetizers, my 'bird dog' aka Paige stated that she was not leaving without meeting him and proceed across the room (me running behind) to go get in his face.

He even said excuse me (thought she wanted to get by), but she said "NO, I wanted to meet you. My name is Paige Murray from Greenville". I think he thought this was funny. I came along and introduced myself and then I informed him that Paige was dying to meet him (really me). He said in that case, then we should have our picture taken. We did, and he is suppoesedly going to sign it and the Rams Club will send it to us. We talked for a few minutes about this and that and then we parted ways. He is genuinely a very nice man.

Overall, it was a great evening. The next day was even better with the victory over the WaHoos (although the game was verrry boring).

Anthony

How exciting Anthony! If anyone could have pulled that off it's Paige! She is so adorable and a natural at that type of thing! Glad you had a great weekend!

Anthony, glad you and Paige enjoyed meeting "the Coach". Now you can post the picture on your refrigerator!

Having met Paige, I can just see that happening. :D Congrats on a great evening!

Anthony, Sounds like it was a fun night. Glad you and Paige had a fun weekend.

Donna, I bet that picture will be framed and sitting on the mantel.

I am embarrassed to say, when I first read the title of this post, the only Roy I could think of was Siegfried and Roy :)

Karen, I first thought of Roy Rogers...but he's dead!!

It's a college basketball thing, Karen & Marcie. Love that March Madness.

:ch: :ch:

You guys crack me up. It is certainly a basketball thing. He is the coach at UNC. Doesn't mean alot to most people, but to diehard Carolina fans. he is one in a million.
