Temperatures in Raleigh continue to rise, but that doesn’t mean that you have to suffer. Below we offer a few serious, and a few tongue-in-cheek suggestions to help you battle the triple digit heat:
- Fishbowl margaritas from El Rodeo
- Slip-n-slide across the Meredith campus lawn
- Stand shoulder to shoulder with someone in any Raleigh public pool
- Pop open a fire hydrant on (insert your street name here)
- Befriend your annoying co-worker from Cary – join them in moving back to wherever it is they came from ;)
- Lock yourself in the meat freezer at the Angus Barn
- Lay beneath the peeing statue in the Rose Garden
- Play golf at RGA with only one ball – aim only for the water hazards
- Hijack one of Raleigh’s many annoying Ice Cream trucks, eat your fill, and then run it into Lake Johnson
- Help us finish off the list with some of your own ideas…
