There's a student tradition at NC State to camp out at the Free Expression Tunnel before the NC State v. Carolina game. The goal is to keep the tunnel from being painted Carolina blue, which used to happen before all NC State v. Carolina football and basketball games. The Ram Roast, started in 2005, ended that.

Here's the schedule Thursday night:
