Special: The Mick pic On the evening of Sept. 29, Mick Jagger—whom some other publications thought it necessary to identify as “the lead singer of the Rolling Stones”—stopped by the Thirsty Beaver in Plaza Midwood for a beer. Jagger posted a photo to his Instagram account the next morning, before the Stones played Bank of America Stadium that night. Charlotte lost its mind. Mick? At the BEAVER? A few choice comments on our own IG repost of the now-immortal image: @cbbusygrizzly: I love how this bar told all the developers around to SUCK IT @moore_movesfitness: Never know who you’ll see at the Beaver @blkbridalbliss: In the cut, chillin’. @mskaylanc: Can’t help but wonder ... did the people to the left realize it was Mick and they were just being respectful or were they clueless? @erikminman: Damn. Now this place is gonna get even more busy.
