Cheer on those Tar Heels but keep safety in mind

TO THE EDITOR:

It's April and we're in the Final Four. We have so much to celebrate; the best coach and staff in college basketball a fantastic team that continues to amaze us and an athletics department that is a class act and does so much to define UNC as a great university.

My family and I will be in Detroit cheering our hearts out. I encourage fans here to do the same in the Dean E. Smith Center. And when you go to Franklin Street to celebrate have fun. But don't forget safety. Chapel Hill police have set reasonable rules based on years of experience. Respect that — and think twice about being associated with bonfires which put innocent people at great risk.

This has been another great season of Tar Heel basketball.

So let's show our team they have the best fans in the country.

Go Heels!
