FWIW, according to the radio interview he said "4,000 tickets for ODU fans, we should have plenty of tickets for ODU fans..." as part of the contract agreed to.

ODU will be busing students and bringing the marching band.
Wow, after busing students and bringing the band there will not be many tickets left over for your actual paying fans. Who is going to pay for the tickets that the band and students will be using?

The 4K ECU tickets is part of the guarantee deal. Instead of $430K cash ODU is accepting $250K in cash and 4K tichets valued at $180K. IMO it was a nice deal for both all parties involved. http://hamptonroads.com/2013/02/much-tou...ext-season

I had heard last year the funds were only 250K, because ECU had to pay The Citadel money for the buy out of the game they were to play at ECU last year. ECU & ODU did some fancy foot work for us to play The Citadel, we replaced them on ECU's Schedule and we picked up The Citadel for a home game. That was all part of the package.

I cannot stress how important it is for you to follow this instruction. I will be going to B's while there.

Only open at lunchtime on Saturdays also get there early because they close when the BBQ runs out!

Parkers it is probably. I'm actually meeting with friends in Raleigh the night before and staying there. Anything good down 64? Not too familiar with that stretch of area other than ZEBULON! I have to yell it every time I see the sign.

I've never eaten at any of the places around that area, but there's a Parkers in Wilson and Billl Ellis in Wilson. Both of those would be on your way from Raleigh to Gville. I've heard Bill Ellis is good but I can't say from personal experience.
