The last time I checked I was a Clemson fan…

Not an Orange fan, not a white fan, not even a purple fan. I go to the games to pull for the Clemson Tigers. So if Clemson decides to make Military Appreciation Day also Purple Out so it can honor all those who have served, then so be it. If people are so shallow that wearing a certain color for 1 (one) Saturday offends them, then they need to get their priorities in line. If wearing purple is so bad, then sell the tickets who want to go to the game and pull for the Tigers. I go to the games to watch and pull for Clemson. Wearing a certain color doesn’t change my attitude or passion for Clemson football. Personally I don’t care if you come wearing pink. If that will bring Clemson a victory, then I say WEAR PINK all season long.
If people think that everyone across the nation will think “that purple is so ghey looking” though, imagine what they are saying about a team who has a chicken for a mascot. In my opinion wearing purple isn’t that big of a deal compared to that.
Now the Woo Hoo is a different story. I still say BAN THE WOO HOO!!!

Post of the day... PPL need to quit whining and support those who have afforded us the opportunity to enjoy Saturday afternoons in the valley! I have no problem w wearing purple any day (i am secure in my manhood) but will gladly wear purple on military appreciation day to support all the purple heart recepients! Especially a certain young man on our team!

Great post. Apparently some people have forgotten that Northwestern purple is still one of our colors. If the team wants to wear it for a game for a great cause, then I'm All In for it. I'll be there cheering on the Tigers wearing my purple. Not complaining.
Go Tigers

I suppose some of us are still suffering from flirting with purple during the Hatfield days...that took a few years for me to recover from, so wearing purple (for whatever reaso) is still a little unpaletable...

Well based on the "wisdom" on here about losses in Purple...We have lost a lot more games in all white or Orange & White than purple. By their logic guess we better junk all our uniforms..................
