Michigan State and North Carolina Basketball Game on Aircraft Carrier USS Carl Vinson in San Diego

The 2011 Quicken Loans Carrier Classic takes place tomorrow night at 4pm PT on Veterans Day, November 11, 2011 (11/11/11!) on the USS Carl Vinson in San Diego, CA.

The Michigan State University Spartans will face off against the University of North Carolina Tarheels in what is sure to be an exciting game to watch as the players and coaches battle it out on the court in support of the veterans of the United States Military. The two teams will wear camouflage jerseys with USA on the back in support of veterans.

If the name of the carrier sounds familiar, it is likely because this is the name of the ship that buried Osama bin Laden's body at sea.

In attendance will be a very special guest, President Obama- who, of course, will have his choice of seating on either the 7,000 seat outside arena or the 4,000 seat arena being built in the carrier's hanger bay below the flight deck in the event that it rains in typically Sunny San Diego.
