Just got back from Talahassee

It was my first trip down, and overall it was good with the exception half of their fanbase who yelled " &$@$ Clemson" at me over and told me to go home.

The only problem I had last night was leaving parking garage

I have made four trips to Tallahassee and never had a problem with their fan base - not even last night. Actually had some good conversations with Nole fans on my way to the truck.
However, last night was my first experience with teh parking garage - that will be my last too.

We had a great trip to Doak Campbell Stadium. We found good parking not far from the stadium and enjoyed talking to both Clemson and Seminole fans in the parking lot and coming and going to the game. We were welcomed graciously by all the Noles we encountered. We ate a good BBQ meal pre-game very close to the stadium. Had no problem finding or using our seats in the middle of the Clemson crowd. Post game we talked to quite a few Nole fans and were treated well by all we saw.
Post game traffic was heavy and it took a long time to get away from the stadium but that's normal for games that end near at or after midnight.
My trip to Tallahassee was made all the better by the win and the knowledge that my Tigers have won 8 of the last 14 games we have played versus the Seminoles.

The trip was fairly consistent with the others except this time there were a whole bunch more "skanky" over-weight chicks wearing Daisy Dukes and cut-up FSU t-shirts trying to emulate the FSU Cowgirl's look.
Just because you can doesn't mean you should.

It was our first trip. We encountered a few bad apples that were encouraged by other FSU fans to continue their profanity filled rants Towards us. I was impressed with the amount of Clemson fans there! Loved the atmosphere.

I got back around 4 this afternoon. There were a few curse words in our direction but that was it. We parked about a mile from the stadium and walked directly to car and back to hotel without any incident.
What surprised me is how quiet ( compared to DV) it was. On tv it seems so much more intimidating. Well placed mics I guess. Stadium just too wide and open to hold sound in. Awesome brick facade on outside, inside not exactly matching. Metal pipes and bracing everywhere.
Overall a good experience, made great by win.
Go Tigers!

But that's literally the same scenario. Everyone around those parts looks like Honey Boo Boo.
