The same couldn't happen at Wake because their is no student section during the 4th quarter
Also, I'll say it, who the hell pulls for their childhood team over their alma mater? I grew up a diehard deac. Had season tickets in basketball and football. Went to Wake games throughout college as well. But on any day where App and Wake meet, I hope App slaps the shit out of em. Hate me for it, idc. I'll pull for Wake the other 364 days of the year.
Unusual for sure but I can certainly see why, as your passions for sports teams are often formed well before you go off to a college to basically get training for a career in something. Good example are the Hornets, Hurricanes and Panthers: plenty of transplants who have been in Raleigh/Charlotte for most of their adult lives and the like our local teams fine, but their passion is still with the Patriots, Steelers, Sabers, Celts, etc. from their formative sports years.
