I live just a few miles from the Duke campus, and can't imagine where this photo was taken.

This game, on Nov. 18, 1939, was a major Southern Conference showdown between seventh-ranked (and tied but undefeated) North Carolina and thirteenth-ranked Duke. Duke won, 13-3, causing it to leap to no. 8. Over 52,000 fans attended the contest. Wallace Wade's Blue Devils finished 8-1, and Raymond Wolf's Tar Heels finished 8-1-1.

No one going to that game in 2019 would be wearing a suit. We looked so much nicer back then. Sigh.
