To commemorate Kenan Stadium’s centennial season, 97.9 The Hill is inviting community members to share their favorite Kenan memories from the past 100 years. This twice-weekly series will showcase stories from players and fans throughout the fall.

As UNC football historian Lee Pace recounts, that lack of modern technology went back to an “old wives’ tale” about the stadium mythos. There’s only one problem: that tale turned out to not be true.
