Yes and they just finished up moving all the accounts from LA to ACG. I assume that was part of the deal before they could announce it. Make sure folks are already locked in. If anyone wants to delete their data and ACG account: https:

Great rec. I always joke with folks that NC has great food and drinks, it's just that they might end up killing you - Krispy Kreme, Bojangles, Cheerwine, and barbecue. I guess Texas Pete wouldn't really hurt anyone :)
