You do need to scan/program for channels after hooking up the antenna. I get between 75 and 90 channels (some duplicates, some shopping channels) in Greenville depending on atmospheric conditions.
We rode up I-26 Friday. It's open, but cuts to one lane over the Nolichucky River (one strand of a bridge is out) briefly as you enter Erwin, Tenn., but no issues otherwise. Hurricane damage to warehouses, riverbed in the Erwin area is mind-boggling.
There will be tickets outside. Not sure what the scalping laws are. Even SRO is good, although I know the kiddos will get tired.
One other thing: Take the family to the Henry Doorly World Zoo. Awesome!
If you're talking about 1975, they put three envelopes in front of the three head coaches, if I remember correctly, I believe Richardson picked first, and the contents said "play" or whatever. He picked the envelope to his left. If he had picked the one in front of him, it said "bye".
