That was the day I met my first enemy. His name is Otto. And after Saturday I will have the last laugh. You going down orange proof! Any last words?

We had a fire alarm go off at the hotel in the middle of the night before the game.
We sat there to the very end of the game.
I saw Jamie Trimble in 97 working as a bar tender in Charleston and was talking to him about Clemson.
He asked if I was a Clemson fan... I said, "I was there to the last second at the Gator Bowl." His reply was, "Oh... that was you!" lol
I don't think it will be anywhere near the same outcome this weekend!
Go Tigers!

I should have known to abort the trip to Jax when my dad and I accidentally rolled down the window and one of our original Tiger Rags flew out and met a rubbery death on I-95.
Things went downhill from there.

until the last minute. It was my freshman year and I was already in love with Clemson football after just 1 season. I didn't want them to lose like that and had faith that the team would do something eventually.

I was there also. Miserable weather and game. 41-0. Only bright spot for me was tickets were free from Toyota. Missed getting the truck at halftime by one person.

20 yard line, bottom row. It was UUUUGLY! The ride home was really a long one. I remember the game being accented on a regular basis by the smell of the paper mill in Jacksonville.

midway through the third quarter when I realized he hadn't made any halftime adjustments. We were out-coached, out-played, and out-reffed. We had such high hopes after dismantling scar a few weeks earlier. We lost our car flag just outside of Savannah on 95 and I got in a fight at the hotel the night before the game.
We did have pretty nice seats though.

3:30 ABC regional broadcast and a 35-0 butt-whipping. That was a longer ride home than the Gator Bowl for me.

My wife was 4 months pregnant with our first child. I brought my 3 cousins to watch my favorite team. They liked Clemson too, that day did some damage to my psyche. Pouring rain and touchdowns and wife was vomiting. Miserable!

I was there. My roommate and I decided to go at the last minute and we bought tickets the last day they were selling them at Clemson. Used a credit card to fund our whole trip and stopped and bought bright orange rain coats at Walmart. It was a miserable time.
