Robert Henry Becker Arizona Daily Wildcat
Republican Sen. John Kyl of Arizona (left) presents North Carolina peanuts to UA President Manuel Pacheco (second from left) after Kyl won a basketball bet with Sen. Lauch Faircloth, R-NC, over whether the Wildcats or Tar Heels would win in the Final Four. Athletic Director Jim Livengood (second from right) and Kyl's communications director, Vincent Sollitto (right), were also present for the bet's payoff in the president's office Friday. Kyl would have had to give Faircloth Arizona pecans if the Wildcats had lost. Livengood said he will deliver the peanuts to the team this week.
