What are millionaire athletes who like to party and have fun going to do in Wilmington and Charleston?

Myrtle Beach gives you the nightlife and you have the beach. This is the best you can offer in the Carolina's. I'm telling you Myrtle Beach is probably the most visited city in all of the Carolina's.


Myrtle Beach is a damn dump lol.

Myrtle Beach is a **** hole and I don't trust anyone who refers to the Carolinas as the Carolina's.

NC is most farmland and trees.

Go visit Vegas or San Francisco and tell me how that compares to anything in NC.

Y'all are looking at it from your point of view. We don't have millions of dollars. These guys want big city bright lights and a nice beach so they can have their yacht parties.

Lake Norman really? You really think LeBron James going to have fun on a dirty lake in Charlotte?

I visit regularly. It’s cheap and more often than not it’s ok. Stay away from bike week.

It’s not weird for people to live where they were born.

It's 70 degrees all week in the beginning of February. I literally got on shorts and a t shirt right now.

Global warming is definitely real.

I will always prefer to be cold over hot.

I will forever hate summer weather. Nothing fun about sweating all day in extreme heat also can't forget the expensive A/C repairs because your unit is overworked from the extreme heat at day.

I wish winter was longer if we being honest.

Colorado and Utah the most beautiful places in the US. Those mountain views are something else.

If I hit the lottery I would probably build my vacation home in either Colorado or Utah.

I'm biased but Sting is clearly the best branding option
