When Andrew was in college at UNC-Chapel Hill a thousand (okay, 16) years ago - there were no student groups focused on themed entertainment or the amusement industry. However, things have changed at Carolina, as the group has their own Themed Entertainment Association Chapter - TEA @ UNC.

Andrew is joined this week by the club's co-presidents Jax McGuire and Grant Sizemore to learn more about the student organization, but to also talk all things Rip Roarin' Falls media day - which Grant and Jax had the chance to attend.

We talk all things themed entertainment and how Rip Roarin' Falls will change the landscape at Carowinds! Check it out!
