UNC held a sale of surplus equipment on Saturday morning which included 12,000 items. Most noteworthy among them were jerseys from the football and basketball teams as well as highly coveted Air Jordan footwear.
Obviously this kind of sale would be the akin to a Black Friday event at a retail store. UNC stated prior to Saturday that people would be allowed to line up starting at 4 AM. Various Twitter accounts attested to people showing up prior to that. By the time the doors opened at 7 AM the bleachers at Fetzer Field were full of people hoping to buy something.
