T-Shirt

Porch Fly Supply Co. designed and produced this "Game of Thrones"-inspired t-shirt. When doors open at 6 p.m., 200 of these shirts will be available at the north end location of The Eye team store (section 112). Each shirt is marked by a unique printed tag that denotes the game and shirt series, and there is a limit of two shirts per person per purchase.
Food

The featured in-house, signature entrée is shrimp and grits, featuring savory, buttery grits topped with sautéed shrimp, bacon, mushrooms and green onions. You can get this dish at the section 109 concessions stand (where all Homegrown entrées will be available this season) for $13.
New for the 2017-18 Hurricanes Homegrown Series is an in-house, signature dessert. First up is the Cheerwine float: Breyer's vanilla ice cream topped off with NC's own Cheerwine. This creation is available at the newly-created Homegrown Series dessert cart at section 111 for $7.
