I knew Mark Zuckerberg was visiting North Carolina to speak at NC A&T yesterday. I was surprised to read this morning that he met with both Duke and UNC men's basketball teams and coaches, too (N&O Story). The story also notes that he tried, and liked, Cheerwine and NC BBQ.

The N&O only shows a pic with Mark and Roy, but there's a link to Mark Zuckerberg's Facebook post with more pics from his visit to both teams. Worth a click. There's one with the guys in the lockerroom where everyone is standing, and Zuckerberg's comment is, "Everyone looked normal height until they stood up." Pretty funny.

There's another where the team is meeting with Zuckerberg, the chairs arranged in a circle in the locker room. The pic is nice, but there's this exchange in the comments (showed up at the top of the comments):

John Ptucha Did Grayson trip you on your way out?

Mark Zuckerberg No, he was very nice. Sometimes the way you appear on TV is very different from the way you are in real life.


I like Zuckerberg's response to the troll.

There's another really nice pic of him and Coach K in Coach's office.

(And, yeah, there are pics over at UNC, too.)

Looks like it was a fun day for all involved.
