The North Carolina and Duke rivalry is always intense. There’s a clear hatred between the two teams, and when they meet, the environment is always crazy.
After Saturday’s game in Durham, which North Carolina dominated from start to finish, the Cameron Crazies had a moment.
North Carolina players went over to the crowd to wave goodbye, just as they did two years ago when they spoiled Coach K’s final home game. As they did so, the Cameron Crazies took it a bit too far. They threw water bottles at UNC players on the court. This happened while Jon Scheyer apologized to Duke fans in the stands.
Yeah, believe it or not that happened. Check out the video below:

Look, it’s a rivalry and it’s always sweet to beat your opponent. And in this case, win the ACC regular-season title outright and sweep Duke in the regular season. Emotions are going to be there. It’s just kind of hilarious to watch this video go down including the Scheyer part.
And we imagine there will not be outrage over this the way we saw a few weeks ago at Wake Forest.
