Roy Williams confirms UNC-Mich. State game on aircraft carrier
By Tim Gardner, USA TODAY
During his weekly radio show Monday night, North Carolina basketball coach Roy Williams confirmed that his Tar Heels will travel to San Diego next season to play Michigan State on an aircraft carrier.
"It hasn't been announced yet, but we're supposed to be playing Michigan State in San Diego on an aircraft carrier on Veterans Day next year," Williams said, according to Inside Carolina.
Williams couldn't confirm exactly which ship the game would be played on, but the game will apparently take place on Nov. 11 -- or on 11/11/11.
The game has not been officially announced by either school.
Robbi Pickeral of the News & Observer talked to North Carolina senior associate athletics director Larry Gallo, who said that while the game is definitely in the works, no contract has been finalized.
"We have not received a contract yet, and there are a lot of parties involved,'' Gallo said. "We've got ourselves and Michigan State, the U.S. government and a promoter-type person. So we're still sitting tight.… All indications are that all systems are go, although contractually, nothing has been finalized, yet."
In November, it was reported by the Lansing (Mich.) State Journal that that the game could be part of a doubleheader, with the other game consisting of two service academies.

Interesting. Doesn't the bow of one of those big carriers move up and down a ton while on the water? It seems like that would fuck up a shot or two...

not sure that this is so great.
More than likely the boat will be docked and the game will be played in the hanger..............kinda like playing in a rundown high school gym that smells like jet fuel.
Oh well, to each their own.

That's because if you were In the ocean, you were actually on a submarine. If you were On the ocean, you were on an aircraft carrier (or other ship/boat). :gig:
