Monday night was a rough one for North Carolina A&T basketball in Tallahassee, FL. Not only did both the men’s and women’s teams lose, their bus got towed. There has been no official word on why the bus was towed, but there appear to be no reports of malfunction. Of course, social media picked up on it in a hurry.

FAMU men beat A&T 76-66 while the Rattler women won 55-51.
Update: NC A&T officials told the Sporting News that the bus was towed due to mechanical issues.
“The upside of still playing doubleheaders is that the men were playing in town as well,” Holloway said in an email to Sporting News. “The women took the men’s bus home because the men were already scheduled to fly back.”
