It's never too early to get kids excited
about Wolfpack football.

Even on the road and hundreds of miles from home, Pack fans can still throw a mean tailgate.

Three F-18s buzz the stadium before kickoff. They later came around for a rare second pass. Perhaps the flight leader is an NC State fan...

This cute little gunboat came over and
let loose a barrage of streamers against
the hapless (and woefully unarmed)
W olfpack fans.
Note: Only one gun out of the six
actually fired.

There was no shortage of NC State red in the visitors section.

The midshipmen, in their dress whites, form up before taking to the stands. NC State's defense spared them from having to do too many push-ups.
