Article on ESPN with "factoids about each Top 25 teams' stadium

7. Clemson
The nickname "Death Valley" for Memorial Stadium is partially derived from the state park, and a rock from the real Death Valley, given to legendary coach Frank Howard, now stands as one of the most famous college football monuments. But the name also stems from Woodland Cemetery, a faculty graveyard opened in 1924 next to the stadium and the Calhoun Family plots. Furthering the motif, Clemson now has a faux graveyard next to its practice facility, with gravestones marking road wins over top-25 opponents. -- Hale

Nit wit. Totally got it wrong. Cemetery has nothing do with the name of the stadium. Fake news = lousy journalism
