Abstract:
The first football bouts played in North Carolina happened during Fair Week in Raleigh in 1888. Three colleges, University of North Carolina, Trinity College, and Wake Forest College fumbled through several games, with no one really understanding the game. The article includes rosters and statistics for each game, followed by personal remembrances.
