OBX Biplanes

I suggest booking your flight a day in advance if possible. This allows you to get familiar with the area and relax before the big day. I found it really helpful to acclimate; it made the experience even better.

If you're prone to motion sickness, I'd recommend taking some medicine before your flight. I didn’t, and I wish I had; it would have made the experience much more enjoyable for me.

I think checking their social media for last-minute deals or special events before visiting can save you some cash. I stumbled upon a promotion that made my flight more affordable.

My advice is to arrive 30 minutes early. You get to watch other flights, which really amps up the excitement and gives you a sneak peek into the fun you’re about to have.
Country Time Equestrian Events

Make sure to wear sturdy boots, although I was in sneakers and regretted it during the muddy trails. Trust me, focus on comfort over style!

I suggest booking your ride in advance especially on weekends. I didn’t and unfortunately we had to wait a long time!

I think trying the early morning rides around 8 AM is great. You beat the heat and get to see the ranch waking up, which is super peaceful!
PNC Arena

I recommend getting to PNC Arena at least 90 minutes before the game. This way, you can dodge the mad rush and actually enjoy the pre-game festivities without feeling rushed

Check out the parking options ahead of time! My friend wasted $20 on a spot that was way too far. Scout out some cheaper lots or street spots for your best bet.
Greensboro Coliseum Complex
If you're driving, take note of the traffic pattern after events. I once got stuck for over 30 minutes just trying to exit the lot.

Check the food prices inside before you go, because they can be steep! I brought some snacks and was glad I did.

Parking can be a mess during big events, so try to arrive at least an hour early. I parked a mile away once and it was a hassle.
Spectrum Center

I think it’s worth investing in a clear bag policy to avoid any hassle at security. I saw a few folks getting delayed because of the bag size rules. It just made my entry smoother and faster!

My advice is to check the team’s website before buying tickets. Sometimes you can score discounts or even last-minute deals that aren’t well advertised. I managed to save a few bucks this way.
I suggest arriving around 5 PM for evening games. The parking fills up fast, and the earlier you get there, the more options you’ll have. Plus, you can grab some snacks without missing the action.
Gate City Billiards Club

If you're looking to save money, keep an eye out for specials or happy hour deals. I found cheap drinks and discounted games in the late afternoon. It really helped stretch my budget

I highly recommend going on a weeknight instead of the weekend. It's way less crowded, plus you can snag a good table without waiting forever. Trust me, it makes a huge difference!
Bring a few extra bucks for tips! The staff here is super friendly and attentive. I think throwing a little extra their way will make your experience even better, plus you'll get great service.
Rodgers Family Skate Plaza

I suggest grabbing food before you go. The nearby options can be pricey and limited, and you'll want to focus on skating.

Don’t forget sunscreen even if it looks cloudy! I learned the hard way and ended up with a sunburn halfway through my session.

Check the schedule for any skate events or contests before you go. I stumbled upon one and it made my visit way more exciting!
Dean Smith Center

I think it's super helpful to familiarize yourself with the seating chart beforehand. I ended up sitting farther than expected because I didn’t look, and it was kinda disappointing.
Bring a light jacket! The air conditioning gets super cold in there, and you'll be wishing you had something to keep warm during the game

If you're looking to save money, skip the overpriced concessions. I found some great places nearby for cheap eats before the game.

My advice is to check out the team store online before your visit. They had some deals on items that weren’t available at the actual store at the arena.
Cameron Indoor Stadium

I think it’s smart to skip the expensive food options inside. There are great local spots just a short walk away where you can grab a bite beforehand. I ended up spending way too much on nachos!

I recommend checking the game schedule in advance and grabbing tickets online. They sell out fast, and trust me, you don't wanna miss a chance to see a game live! Also, prices can be steeper at the door.
My advice is to arrive around 90 minutes before game time. You can explore the stadium and take some awesome pics without the huge crowd getting in your way. It's also when the atmosphere starts getting electric!
Kitty Hawk Kites Hang Gliding School

My advice is to avoid weekends if you can. It was super busy when I went Saturday morning; I had to wait an hour. I think a weekday would give you a way smoother experience.
