UNC-Wake Forest Tailgate Event Successful

Members enjoy tailgate fare prior to the UNC-Wake Forest game.

The North Carolina Bar Association hosted a tailgate and game experience last week in conjunction with the UNC-Wake Forest football game in Chapel Hill. North Carolina Lawyers Weekly, the NCBA’s newest affinity partner, sponsored the event.

More than 300 NCBA members and their family members and friends attended with the option of purchasing discounted game tickets in the Wake Forest or UNC sections of Kenan Stadium. UNC’s Rams Club and the Wake Forest athletic office issued fan stickers which were distributed to the attendees.

Member feedback was immediate and positive, with many stating that they hoped the NCBA would continue to offer opportunities such as this in the future. To that end, discussions are ongoing with various athletic programs to schedule additional events.

“Our first-ever NCBA tailgate was a resounding success,” stated Josh McIntyre, membership director. “This is the type of social event that is fun for members and their families and friends, and we hope to hold more of them in the future.”
