What would Raleigh be like if the city announced we will no longer be hosting the State Fair? Or if a ban on hockey went into effect?
We asked you what the wildest citywide prank would be — and you did not disappoint. What would Raleigh be like if…
“All brew pubs are banning dogs outdoors.” – Linda R.
“The UNC Tar Heels are the official team of Raleigh.” – Mark K.
“Cary is now the new state capital.” – @lifeisgood611
“Raleigh has been renamed the Queen City. The King City is now Charlotte. Reason is unclear.” – Nels S.
“Downtown’s Krispy Kreme is closing.” – Katharine T.
“A new law where drivers from the south must stay in the right lanes + drivers from the north must stay in the left lanes (on the beltline).” – Steve M.
“All road construction is now complete.” – @harrison.pratt
“Raleigh will now go by the name of Raleigh-Durham.” – @hardwick_aj
“The City of Oaks is now the City of Squirrels.” – City Editor Anne
“The mayor enacted a city-wide ban on BBQ.” – City Editor Cat
All we have to say is that we’re happy these are fake situations. Raleigh just wouldn’t be the same without our hot donuts or the Hurricanes.
