        Not even mad; I don’t have any real connection to the Fighting Hawks - it was still the Fighting Sioux when I was there. Funny thing was that we were always technically the Flickertails on paper anyway, along with the green and pink official colors that they always liked to pretend were actually green and white.

          When you said you were more likely to complain about -40, I just knew. I literally live in California, but my Dad’s family are from Park Rapids, MN. and avid UNC fans due to many of my family being alums.

          100% of my experiences there were cold af minus temps like that.
