Great pre game memory when the Tiger mascot

shot a paper Boston College “Golden Eagle” with the cannon thats fired after touchdowns and extra points. Caught the Eagle on fire and coaches and refs had to stomp it out. Clemson got a 5 yard delay of game penalty. Great memories!!

If this was pregame, how did we get a penalty?***

Never heard of this happening before. This surely would have video since it wasn’t that long ago. I’m not calling you out…. just can’t believe their mascot caught on fire and the whole episode was forgotten. Serious, yet funny at the same time.

The Boston College game with Doug Flutie as BC QB. I think around 1982 or 1983. Cheerleaders had made a giant BC Eagle out of paper. Our cannon operator got up close to it and shot it with the cannon. Of course the cannon blew a huge hole through the paper bird.

Our Tiger then proceeded to pounce on the eagles poor remains. He was wallowing around on top of it when he suddenly jumped up and started peeling off the Tiger costume. It seems gunpowder was still smoldering in the dead bird and had set the Tiger aflame. All ended well as our Tiger was immediately extinguished.
