OT: UNC Football players don't know how to park...

Submitted by bigmc6000 on

Well it seems that UNC has it's own issues with players getting parking violations but they make tOSU's look like child's play...

 

 

North Carolina has released documents showing a group of North Carolina Tar Heels football players accumulated more than $13,000 in parking citations over a 3½-year period.

 

WTF?!?! 13 grand!!!!

That's not terrible. That's an average of 1.8 25$ parking tickets per year for every one of the 85 football players on scholarship. Tickets may be more expensive, and there could be serial offenders. God knows, I average more than a couple of parking tickets a year.

They only asked about 11 players and, per the University, not all of them got citations and there were a total of 395 citations...  So that ends up being 40+ citations per players (unless I'm reading this incorrently).

 

"The total amount of the citations was $13,185.

The university said in a statement that not all of the 11 players requested by the media had received tickets."

I know its off topic but I didnt feel this deserved an entire thread (If I can even start one yet)

 

Cliff Harris (Oregon CB) racked up $8,827.50 since 2008. You would think he would eventually learn how to park

I work for the campus police at a D3 school, and I've seen individuals get over $2000 in tickets in a single year, with most of it often coming in one semester. there will always be college kids that don't care about the rules.
