TO THE EDITOR:
I am disappointed about the UNC vs. Duke game, but it’s not our team that I am disappointed with; it’s my fellow students.
While the outcome of the game wasn’t what any Tar Heel fan wanted, the responses I saw at the game were the worst part of the night.
I saw my fellow Tar Heels band together to insult our basketball team and their playing, instead of coming together to support them.
I don’t attend many basketball games, so maybe the tensions of the UNC-Duke rivalry brings out the worst in people.
Either way, hearing the people around me insult our basketball team left me feeling uneasy.
I love Carolina, and I love our basketball team, regardless of their record at the end of the season.
During my time at Carolina, I’ve found that the spirit of Carolina is to support and stand with your community, no matter what.
I’ve seen true Carolina spirit in so many individuals that I have met here. What I saw at the game that night was not the Carolina spirit that I’ve come to know and expect from my fellow Tar Heels; it was something else entirely.
