December 6, 1987? I was there. That crowd was LOUD. Death Valley loud. And I was sick as a dog. One of the worst cases of the flu I've ever had. But dang, it was glorious.

Too bad man. Shoulda stopped by party central (Village Green 136). You could have crashed on the couch at least one of those nights.

Wait a daggum minute. You were sick and not quarantining yourself? And weren’t wearing a mask?

Yes, about 4 rows from the top/home side (of course). Shared classes with several of those guys - GREAT team. Joey was a good dude. Seems there was a guy named Pierce - anyway, great memories :)

For Mr. Wynalda.

It was the Clemson mullet (Bruce Murray) vs. the SDSU mullet.

We got the better end that day. Beautiful memory from my sophomore year.

And only a week after the conclusion of a football season that was exciting and disappointing.

I was at Riggs for the final four too. Clemson was a team of destiny! I also remember Clemson at Rutgers Thanksgiving week too. Jamie Roots became the Texans GM.

Sorry, but I wasn't there on that day, but, I have set in DV many of times with my teeth chattering and about to freeze to death, and I would sit there to the end of the game knowing that I should've took my frozen A$$ home!!!!

Not actually knowing much at all about soccer, I promise that I wouldn't sit there and freeze like I've done in DV to watch and cheer for our Tigers playing FB!!! But here to hoping we win the soccer NCG, Go Tigers!!!
