With the Carolina Hurricanes partnering with the Durham Bulls for the upcoming “Bunch of Jerks” night, what other North Carolina teams should look to partner with the Hurricanes for a hockey night?

North Carolina is a hot bed for sports and not enough people are talking about it. There are major and minor league teams all over the state. Ranging from baseball to soccer to hockey and everything in-between. Many of them are bringing home championships as well.

Recently, one of the state’s most beloved baseball teams, the Durham Bulls announced that “Bunch of Jerks” night will be held on August 23rd at the Durham Bulls Athletic Park. This comes on the heels of their second Stranger Things night. With people still riding high off success of the Carolina Hurricanes success last season, this will for sure be a home run for the Bulls.

There are some major names in North Carolina sports. As well as some smaller ones. Who should look into hosting their own hockey night along side the Carolina Hurricanes. I will be omitting other hockey teams from this list.
