Plans dashed, travelers hunker down at RDU. ‘What're you supposed to do?'
Keith Arrington and Charlie Cox arrived at RDU from their home in Durham at 4:30 Friday, expecting to board their flight to San Francisco to celebrate Arrington’s dad’s 75th birthday. But after hours of waiting and piecing together updates on their flight and the airport ground stop, they decided to cancel their flight altogether. The pair incurred a $250 cancellation fee from their hotel despite the nationwide outage. But canceling the flight was preferred over continuing to navigate the ground stop, they said. “Like is it safe to even fly once they do get it running?” Arrington asked. “What’re you supposed to do?” Thousands of passengers were left stranded Friday when the Federal Aviation Administration halted all flights due to a “temporary telecommunications outage.” As of 6:30 p.m., 164 flights had been delayed at Raleigh-Durham International Airport and another 52 canceled, according to FlightAware. Travelers crowded around flight information boards while dozens of others lined up at airline service desks to try to change their travel plans.

Joe Thuney was grateful for a scholarship. Now he's in the NC State Ring of Honor
Some football players have dreams of setting records and leaving lasting legacies at their programs. Developing into a player worthy of the Athletics Hall of Fame or Ring of Honor tops their list of career goals. Former N.C. State offensive lineman Joe Thuney was just happy to be here. “I was just pumped to have a scholarship,” Thuney said on Saturday. “I couldn’t believe I got to go to college for free; free housing was awesome and a meal plan. I was like, ‘This is incredible.’ “Grateful for everything here.” He’s come a long way since moving to Raleigh as a two-star recruit, ranked No. 122 at his position. Thuney became the 15th member of the Wolfpack’s Ring of Honor, joining all-time greats including Jim Ritcher and head-coach-to-be Philip Rivers. The Dayton, Ohio, native credited Don Horton, the late N.C. State offensive line coach, for his recruitment and development. Horton saw Thuney’s promise long before he did. “(Horton) visited me in Ohio, and I remember he would come to my basketball games after football season,” Thuney said. “(He was) such a dedicated, passionate man, and great family, and just felt very comfortable with him. I really liked what you know
