WASHINGTON 鈥� North Carolina Gov. Roy Cooper made good on a bet with Virginia Gov. Ralph Northam on Tuesday 鈥� after getting a gentle hint.
Northam began Wednesday’s Ask the Governor program on 麻豆官网 by commiserating with co-host Mark Lewis about their NCAA Men鈥檚 Tournament brackets 鈥� specifically, the damage that the performance of the Virginia-based teams had done to them.
Northam said he had one consolation, though: He鈥檇 won a bet with Cooper on the outcome of the Virginia-North Carolina ACC men鈥檚 tournament finals, and had a six-pack of North Carolina craft beer coming to him. But he couldn鈥檛 help pointing out that he hadn鈥檛 actually gotten the prize yet.
鈥淚 haven鈥檛 seen it come into Richmond,鈥� Northam told Lewis and Debra Feinstein. 鈥淢aybe it鈥檚 in the mail, as they say. Any day now.鈥�
Well, his Twitter account couldn鈥檛 help mentioning it either:
Hey , is asking where my bet winnings are. I told them maybe it’s in the mail 鈥�

Never let it be said that Cooper鈥檚 not a man of his word 鈥� or that 麻豆官网 doesn鈥檛 get results. Cooper on Wednesday picked up a six-pack of Mother Earth, in Cavalier orange cans, and grabbed some Fullsteam, in Carolina blue, as well.
The beer is on the way, .

And he sent them off to Northam. Or at least he said he did. We鈥檒l see.
Northam was gracious in victory 鈥� reasonably, anyway:
Victory is sweet. Can’t wait to try these, .

At last check, Lewis is still hosed.
