2. Concessions were provided by The Varsity, a popular local eatery. Unsold hot dogs from that game are still available today.
3. Turnovers were not recorded, but witnesses say that John Seward called a timeout that Duke did not have in the final minute, adding a bit of drama to the game. It became known as "Seward's Folly".
4. Every player in the game committed a foul except Duke's Carl Sapp, which was the origin of the fan chant "Carly Doesn't Foul!".
5. The lead official was Randall "Radio" Valentine.
6. The game was sponsored by Del Monte, who provided the peach baskets.
"We are not provided with wisdom, we must discover it for ourselves, after a journey through the wilderness which no one else can take for us, an effort which no one can spare us, for our wisdom is the point of view from which we come at last to regard the world." --M. Proust
