WE ARE JUST HOURS AWAY NOW FROM THE FLOODING THE STREETS OF RALEIGH TO CELEBRATE THE BIG STANLEY CUP VICTORY AND RETURNING TO THE STATE OF NORTH CAROLINA. PREPARATIONS UNDERWAY, CITY WIDE AND OUR BETHANY CATES IS DOWNTOWN ON FAYETTEVILLE STREET TO TELL US HOW SOME PEOPLE ARE GETTING READY. CAN YOU TELL ME THE MESSAGES TO GET HERE EARLY?

WE\u2019RE FIRED UP. I\u2019M EXCITED AND LOOKING FORWARD TO IT. ALL WEEK. WE WERE HERE 20 YEARS AGO WHEN THEY HAD THE LAST PARADE, AND WE ARE NOT GOING TO MISS TOMORROW. WE WALK FOR OUR CANES. AFTER TWO DECADES. MANY ARE IN COUNTDOWN IN PREPARATION MODE FOR A PARADE THAT THEY\u2019VE BEEN WAITING ON SINCE 2006. I WAS SIX YEARS OLD WHEN WE WON OUR LAST CUP, AND THE BABYSITTER SENT ME TO BED EARLY, SO THIS TIME I DID NOT GO TO BED EARLY. FANS ARE ALREADY MARKING THEIR TERRITORY FOR THE PARADE ROUTE AND FINDING THE BEST SPOT AS FENCES AND BARRICADES ARE GOING UP BY THE SECOND, CITY OFFICIALS PREPARE FOR A MASSIVE AMOUNT OF PEOPLE FLOODING THE STREETS. WHAT DO YOU THINK IS A GOOD SPOT? SO WE\u2019RE TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WE\u2019RE SCOPING IT OUT, SOME EVEN SUGGESTING YOU MIGHT WANT TO SECURE YOUR RIDE IN ADVANCE. THERE\u2019S A LOT OF BUZZ RIGHT NOW. YOU WANT TO LOOK AT UBER DROP OFFS. YOU WANT TO FIND THE CLOSEST AREA WHERE YOU CAN CARPOOL AND GET DROPPED OFF A COUPLE OF BLOCKS AWAY. BECAUSE ALL OF ALL OF THIS FAYETTEVILLE STREET IS GOING TO BE BLOCKED OFF. I STOPPED IN A FEW BUSINESSES WHO SAY THEY\u2019RE PREPARING MORE FOOD THAN USUAL, AND WILL HAVE ALL HANDS ON DECK TO FACILITATE THE TRAFFIC FOR SATURDAY\u2019S PARADE. AND MOST IMPORTANTLY, YOU\u2019LL BE IN GREAT COMPANY WITH ALL THE CANDIDATES WHO HAVE COME FROM NEAR AND FAR TO WATCH THIS MONUMENTAL MOMENT. THEY BETTER GET HERE. THAT\u2019S WHAT I\u2019M SAYING. IT\u2019S GOING TO BE BUSY TOMORROW. PARTY TOMORROW IN DOWNTOWN RALEIGH FOR SURE. IN MY LIFETIME. I MAY NOT SEE THIS AGAIN, BUT FOR RIGHT NOW, WE CELEBRATE AND WE ENJOY. SO LET\u2019S GO CANES. JUST MAYHEM. JUST LIKE LENOVO SAID, IT\u2019S GOING TO BE ELECTRIC. ABSOLUTELY ELECTRIC AND MAYHEM. NOW YOU STILL HAVE A LITTLE BIT OF TIME TO GO THROUGH YOUR CHECKLIST AND TO MAKE SURE YOU HAVE EVERYTHING YOU NEED, BECAUSE ON SATURDAY, WHERE I\u2019M STANDING RIGHT NOW WILL BE A SEA OF RED, BLACK AND WHITE.
