Not only did Hurricanes basketball blow a first-half lead and lost to Duke, but also a fan blew his conch and lost it to security.

The Canes' student section doesn't get a lot of credit during basketball season, but Blue Devils coach Mike Krzyzewski got pissed at a conch horn in the stands and had it removed. Lame. This only ensures that the next time Duke comes to the BankAtlantic Center, it will be filled with dozens of conchs.
