NC State Wolfpack.

Winner: NC State Wolfpack

Reader Ashley P. had a little extra help from her kitty, which we will allow. This tuff and intricate pumpkin screams “Go Pack” — and we are here for it.

NC — The best state in the country.

Finalist: NC — The best state in the country

We have to agree Matthew H., NC is the best state in the country. Here at 6AM City , RALtoday’s parent company, we live by the phrase “pride in place,” and this pumpkin knocked it out of the park.

Construction.

Finalist: Construction

While construction on I-40 can be scary, we have good news for you Tristan B., completion for the I-40 widening project is expected by late 2024. Thanks for the scare.
