Here's one for you older Tigers....like myself

Who remembers the All American presentations Bob Hope did as part of his Christmas Special?
Bonus point - What uniform issue did Terry Kinard have during the show? Unfortuately, not sure if it was the 81 or 82 show.
I miss the old days....

Remember those shows well. If I'm not mistaken, Kinard had to wear a borrowed jersey and helmet as well. May be crazy, but the helmet was a "Hutch" youth helmet.

Bob Hope did a show at Clemson in 1983. There are probably some guys on here who were there for it.

The First Tiger I Remember Being on The Hope

All American Show was right guard Harry Olszewski either 1966 or 67. The 83 Hope campus show was great. I remember him giving Strom Thurmond , who was there, some great one liners, especially about being married to a young Nancy Thurmond.

I remember all of this very well. We need more Harry O's and Mass type players. They played in 1967 btw. I still have the program from the Bob Hope show.
Unfortunately, I also remember the 1957 Sugar Bowl against LSU who had a Heisman Trophy winner on the squad. We held their 'Mr. Football' in check that day but lost 7 - 0 on a bad snap of a punt.

I do remember that when William Perry came out for the Bob Hope show that it was one of the most amazing moments.
