The Sporting News recently named Raleigh-Durham-Chapel Hill as the 24th Best Sports City in the nation. This is probably due more to UNC and Duke basketball programs than the Carolina Hurricanes, but hey, we’re all in the same city here. Raleigh edged Charlotte, who is listed at #35. But to be fair, Charlotte is actually one city.
In other sports news, a Bull Durham sequel is in the works, which will be filmed in Durham. Perhaps they’ll stop by Mitch’s Tavern on Hillsborough Street, where a scene from the original 1988 film was shot.
