My food contribution will be a shipboard Sunday Brunch staple: Chili Macaroni.

Call the Iron Duke office (919) 613-7575 on Monday to find out. I think it will be in the morning, way longer than 4 hours for a 7 pm kick off.

At 7 next Saturday we will be on the Carnival Valor, watching Miami slide into the distance.

I hate missing opening game, but I am pretty nervous about this one so it's probably just as well.

Giving my tickets to a crazy Duke fan and his son to celebrate his son's being in remission.

LGD!

See you on the 15th.

Be glad you weren't planning to leave tonight! Don't know if the ships pulled out of port with passengers or not. Airports are closing tonight and tomorrow until the gale force winds are gone - on Monday. Oops! this weather report is in the wrong thread. For now...

I'd be willing to bet that the lots will be open at 7AM. 8AM at the latest.

Look forward to meeting your family Bob.

As of this AM, it looks like Isaac will be taking his winds and rain a few hundred miles east of the Triangle.

Bob, the information booklet that came with my tickets states that the Iron Duke lots will be open @ 6:00 AM on game days. The General Public lots will open 4 hours prior to kickoff on game days with the exception of the Chemistry Lot on Circuit Drive and the Jogging Trail Lot on NC 751/Cameron Blvd. Both of these lots will open @ 7:00 AM on game days. Hope this helps. AW

Thanks AW. I usually park in the Chemistry Lot. I'm looking forward to seeing everyone on Saturday.

Update: the forecast high is now 92F, or 9F2 for dd

And it's still going to be dry, weatherwise. Alcohol-wise, it's going to be wet, very wet!

What time will the Blue Devil Walk take place for a 7 pm start? Two and one half hours early so 4:30? I'm sure the information is posted somewhere on GoDuke.com, but I haven't located it. I should remember from previous games, but there is a slight possibility

I was inebriated so I don't remember.
