Irony in Myrtle Beach ...

Just making an observation, not trying to start a political debate.
The ACC leadership caved to political pressure and pulled the ACC Baseball Tournament out of Myrtle Beach since the NAACP is boycotting SC due to the Confederate flag issue.
But, yet, this week is Black Biker Week in Myrtle Beach.
(Scratch my head)

Most of political correctness is a one way street.

True , but what end of the street you are standing on and which direction you need to go determines whether you see it as a fault or a favor .

Never looked at it that way. I also think Charlotte would be a great place to hold the ACC Baseball Tournament. New park, uptown and a lot of places to stay and eat. Plus, maybe have a beer or two.

However, every other person there is a UNC fan it seems.
Of course, all they probably know is basketball ... until it is shut down for awhile (fingers crossed)

The idea behind keeping to the spirit of the silly boycott is that BBW participants are supposed to only spend money at the North Carolina beaches across the border, then come back down to MB. Those coming from other places are expected to spend as little as possible in SC. Yeah, sure.

but that would be politically incorrect, so never mind. I don't see why the color of their bikes matters anyway.
