Basketball Museum
by Caitlin Williams
Soon Heaven will be within walking distance for Carolina basketball
fans.
The Blue Heaven Museum, which houses the largest public exhibition
of Carolina basketball memorabilia, is relocating closer to downtown
Chapel Hill.
The location has yet to be determined, but David Daly says the museum
will be up and running in a month.|
The museum captures the Carolina basketball tradition through photographs,
film and other multi-media presentations.
From James Worthy's Star Trek trading card to Matt Doherty's sweatpants,
the museum offers fans a chance to look back into Carolina's basketball
history.
Daly says that moving closer to town has advantages and disadvantages.
"We tend to see our out-of-town visitors really praise us for being
here because it's easier to get to," says Daly. "But on a game day,
on a weekend, during the summer there is a lot of walking around
that we miss by being out here."
