Paying off a lost bet on Battle of the Blues, Durham honors Chapel Hill — with a poem

The Durham Convention & Visitors Bureau recently Tweeted its Chapel Hill countepart, Visit Chapel Hill, a laudatory poem after the UNC Tar Heels defeated the Duke Blue Devils in an Atlantic Coast Conference men’s basketball clash on Feb. 8.

The poem grew out of a bet the Durham Convention & Visitors Bureau made with Visit Chapel Hill before the Feb. 8 Tobacco Road showdown: Whoever lost the game would write a nice poem about the other city.
