Could you imagine if in this day and age they announced they

First thing I noticed were the Rat Hats and the ties. Probably a little before my time at Clemson, but not by much.

I started posting one a day in January (you can sift back through the links on the right to start in January and go all the way up to today).

I got the pictures from a Tigernet alum...Mintaka. Most have a short story that goes along with them.

What is written in the end zone?


Aug 21, 2012, 6:49 AM

Looks like it ends with a "Y", but maybe I'm looking at it wrong.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

"IPTAY"


Aug 21, 2012, 7:06 AM

IPTAY was in one end zone for many years. Not sure if it was every game or not.

Pretty much as it looked in my day....You could see kids


Aug 21, 2012, 7:30 AM

sliding on the hill (on cardboard) throughout the game. Most of us at the time never imagined there'd be seats on the hill. By the time I left in '69, there was quite a large crowd on the hill during games. Notice how most of the crowd is dressed....Games in those days were "social" events with the stadium taking on a "preppy" look. The first game my parents attended in '65, my Mother showed up in dress, purse, hat, white gloves and heels. My Dad had on a white shirt, tie, coat and hat. Even funnier, most of the guys I knew and I would somehow scrape up corsages for our dates, most of whom spent a great deal of time prior to the games "prepping." The professors and others were kind enough to open their homes for our dates, as most of us couldn't afford hotels, etc. Mine usually stayed in the home of a Dr. Whitney and his wife, whose sons were close friends and whom many of you older grads may remember. Each home weekend was, also, a big dance weekend put on by the CDA of which Jim Barker was an officer!
