Check out this admonition to basketball fans looking for commemorative copies of the Daily Tar Heel, should Carolina win tonight (emphasis is mine).

We realize that most people will intend to be reasonable about this, even in Tuesday’s potential excitement. We also realize that there will be a strong temptation to pull a few extra copies out of our boxes to hold for mom and dad, friends and relatives out of the area and so on. We get it. However, the bulk removal of large numbers of copies in excess of what’s reasonable will be considered theft and will be dealt with as such. We ask that our readers be on the lookout for this, as you have in the past, and call our office at 962-1163 or e-mail [email protected] if you believe you are witnessing the theft of the DTH.

In addition, if you have not purchased additional copies of the DTH, then we believe that selling free copies is an infringement of our copyright, and we will pursue all remedies available to us as we have successfully in the past.
