I am a member and it truly is a fun time - win or lose, but luckily I'm way ahead on free meals.
The Clemson skits with "Whiny Caroliny" are priceless. Whiny has entered in a wheel chair and a casket in previous years.
I would recommend it for other places. It takes some edge of the rivalry with people you see and work with daily. Plus it is a get-away and free meal while others are Christmas shopping.
