Tailgating


Aug 9, 2022, 3:33 PM

Can anyone tell me what satellite system works the best for watching games while tailgating at Clemson?

We use a hotspot and stream.

Get a smart tv, hotspot off your phone and you are good to go. Trashed my tailgater after I parked right next to Jervey. Couldn’t pick up anything.

Will need a streaming service if you do not have one. I use YouTube TV with no issues. Good luck!

i recommend ditching the hotspot


Aug 10, 2022, 8:26 AM

buy a HDMI chord for whatever phone you are using and plug directly into your TV for better performance. it should keep your phone charged while doing it.


I've done this a a bunch of times.. worked great in big cities for bowl games but at BEST it is laggy at Clemson.

Same. I’ve done the satellite and streaming. Last years streaming was bad for me in lot 5. We were following advise to do the smart tv using internet from the phone…bad.

Switched to the phone to hdmi adapter and it actually worked well. I prefer the satellite but streaming is so much easier.

We do the same, much easier than dealing with the dish. My parking spot is on the south side of the stadium, never had a reception/bandwidth problem.

2024 white level memberbadge-donor-05yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Streaming is definitely the way to go

We've never had connectivity issues. We don't even bother with a TV anymore just a 12.9 inch iPad. No need for power or a generator the battery lasts all day.

u wil only get SD with Direct TV


Aug 9, 2022, 3:46 PM

unless you bring a manual slimline dish or a $2000 self finding dish.

All direct TV is in HD.

Dish offers pay as you go. Direct TV does not.

neither will work if you are under 70000 trees
