We were really worried about the traffic since it was a 12:00 game, but between the 4 of us we knew enough short-cuts and the best places to park that we got their with relatively little hassle. We parked in front of (what Harry called) the photography staple, the bridge in front of the Strom Thurman Center.
Here are Martha and Ed in front of the bridge.
Harry and I enjoying some tailgating.
One thing we noticed this year that we hadn't seen previously at Clemson games were crazy religious people. There were a lot of signs about the Devil coming, the end of days, and even telling us not to go to church but to worship Jesus (????).
And here... the most exciting 15 seconds in college football!
RUNNING DOWN THE HILL!
As you can see, our seats were pretty far up, but they were actually pretty good. We could see all of the action and we got just enough sun to keep us warm. The only problem at the game was apparently row R in our section was the BEST row in Death Valley because we were crammed in there! Some dumb witch decided that our row was better than the row in front of us with all the extra room. She was also TONS of fun yelling sweet comments at the players, coaches and refs. Despite our fun friend, we had a really great time.
Tiger Band spells out Clemson.
After the game we went downtown for some shopping and stopped in at Keith Street for some dinner (yummy!). Oh how we miss Clemson.
On the way back to the car we stopped by to take a beautiful picture of Tillman hall at sunset.
And Edward visited with some of the local wildlife. (Edward is the one on the right, an opossum is on the left.)
