Carolina Hurricanes - North Carolina Day

On January 10th, the Carolina Hurricanes game promotion against the New Jersey Devils will be "North Carolina Day" in honor of the 25th Anniversary of the team moving to the state. How does the organization plan on recognizing this state? Chris and Dennis have a few suggestions of their own.

In this weekly series, Chris Lea (WRAL-TV) and Dennis Cox (99.9 The Fan) interview famed sports figures, entertainers and pop-culture icons about their love of and contributions to the North Carolina sports culture and the state's large, sometimes over-looked, impact on the national sports scene. Culture State instills pride in natives, residents and fans in what’s produced or influenced by our state, while also generating intriguing continuing fan conversations and water-cooler moment laughs.
