    Fans celebrate in Chapel Hill; 10 taken to hospital

    CHAPEL HILL Ten people were taken to UNC Hospital and 16 others were injured during the street celebration of North Carolina's victory, Chapel Hill authorities said today.

    About 30,000 joined in the party jamming Franklin and other downtown streets, authorities said.

    Altogether, Orange County Emergency Medical Services treated 26 people for minor lacerations, alcohol emergencies, burns and respiratory difficulties. The conditions of those taken to the hospital were not provided.

    Two people were arrested, one on charges of property damage and the other on charges of assaulting a government official and being intoxicated and disruptive.

    The crowd rushed onto Franklin street within minutes of the win.

    "Crazy, tight, pushy, pandemonium," said Bobbi McNeil, 43, of Graham after making her way through the jubilation.

    Doctors at the Jaycee Burn Center at UNC Hospitals had urged celebrants not to set or jump over bonfires, but people ignored that advice. A Dr. Seuss book, a Buffalo Bills cap and a Duke t-shirt were among items used for fuel.

    For many, jumping through fire was a spur-of-the-moment thing. Elliott Rubin, on the other hand, was looking forward to it.

    Standing in front of a television at Qdoba Mexican Grill, Rubin, 24, wore the same blue, yellow and white basketball sneakers he had on while jumping through bonfires during the celebration of the Tar Heels' win in 2005.

    "It's the culmination of the entire year of yelling at the TV," said Rubin, who attended UNC. "It's the most jubilant feeling ever."

    This year's fires weren't as big as they were in 2005, said DeeDee Monzee, 23.

    "The crowd is definitely bigger this year," said Monzee, a 2007 UNC graduate, before jumping through a bonfire. "There's a lot more alumni out here."

    People climbed utility poles, and one group forced a street sign off a pole. It was later used as a surfboard. A few girls took turns riding through the crowd, but balance problems made their rides short.

    All of this made for a pretty good birthday for Ellie Tyler Carmichael. The middle name? Pure coincidence, said her parents.

    "Pretty good," said Ellie, who turned 10 on Tuesday. "It's the best birthday ever."

    Others had mixed feelings about the celebratory excess. "This is disgusting," said one man as he made his way through the crowd with a friend.

    "It's all in the name of a national championship," his friend replied.
