I live and was born in Columbia


Feb 5, 2017, 7:11 AM

and had a great conversation while playing golf with a former The State writer and Degreed Gamecock.
I told him how great I felt for my Alma Mater to win the National Championship. He said he was pulling for us and was glad for his Clemson friends and the state. I said that I appreciated it and have always wished that the Gamecocks had success (minus us), because the fans that I know deserve some happiness. He nodded in agreement and said that he was disappointed in the Stupid-angry gamecock fans that were delusional about everything.
I responded that Gamecock fans are likely the most supportive of their team than everyone, including us, and that they are so frustrated that, even odds and probabilities have yet to catch up with time and their reason.
Don't be jerks to them.
They are our friends who love their team.
We have it good, but those people filled a stadium every game for 0-11 in 1999.
No reason to be mean.
Be amazed at why they haven't won anything significant with more support than maybe 20 programs.
Okay, I'm done

I hope they go 0-12 EVERY year.

Just do the research, when Clemson has had it's best Teams, it is also the same time that SC is average to far below average.

Their most successful Team was built by 2 lifelong SC fans JC and ML along with players that chose to go to SC instead of CU during the TB to Dabo coaching change.

Never will I pull for a coot team in any sport or respect any coot fan for their choice of being one. Now don't get me wrong, if I saw a stranded driver in a coot-clad vehicle I'd stop & help. I'd never wish bad things towards any other human being as far as health or life or family etc. but as far as the fandom side of me goes (and any coot fan as well) anything is fair game. If a consumer buys a product that is sub-par and they're dissatisfied with that product, then that consumer is likely not buying that product again. If coot fans are dissatisfied with their crappy football program they have the same choice to make.

You meet and talk to one decent coot on a golf course, but for that one I'll show you 15 obnoxious ones. You mention them filling a stadium for an 0-11 team but fail to add that the same stadium was a ghost town by halftime. It's a two-sided story with them.

I will wish nothing but misery on coot fans as it pertains to their athletic teams until the day I die. That's called a rivalry.

Re: I live and was born in Columbia


Feb 5, 2017, 10:24 AM [ in reply to Re: I live and was born in Columbia ]

I agree with ClemsonUncle. I lived near Columbia and it is clear to me why they fill their stadium and its empty after half time. It's a business social event. Businesses buy season tickets and invite customers and business associates to tailgate as social events. They fill the stadium with people that came for the elbow rubbing and they have had enough by halftime. I was invited many times but never could bring myself to go to that cesspool. So the masses shown at the beginning of the game aren't really devoted fans. The ones you see after halftime are the really devoted ones.

There are plenty of fine folks that I call friends that support SCU. However I have encountered more obnoxious ignorant hateful Coots than I have any other school that I have come across. Pride in your school is fine but to have never done anything in your history you would think a little more humility would permeate their fanbase...not so.

They will achieve success when they stop worrying about other programs more than their own, when they take ownership of their failure instead of trying to blame it on cheating, refs, or luck. I cant feel bad for them when they want to talk down about the football ops building all while trying to play catch up and do something similar.

These are the ignorant people posting about how they had a better recruiting class than we did...I cant feel sorry for a group of people who are so blinded from reality just to hide their own inadequacies. Nope, cannot do it.

Seriously I will pull for USC-Eastern for one reason. I am very practical and we have to play them in every sport and the more wins they have, the better our strength of schedule. Some seasons that matters as far as our bowl game placement and NCAA basketball or baseball rankings at the end of the season. That is why. Most of their fans are delusional ######### and make it hard at times. I am outlawed from the Cockroach though for their games. I have only been there for the Clemson 45-0 and 63-17 games, and their losses to Citadel(the first one) Furman. Kentucky(homecoming of all things), and Nebraska. None of my Kook friends are willing to sell or give me their tickets anymore.

I respect your outlook and how you feel. Having said that, I do know a few good gamecock fans who are truly good people who would give you the shirt off their backs. But they are the lesser of that group. The majority of the gamecock fans I know are delusional jerks. They badmouth Clemson and Dabo and anything Clemson related. They made fun of Dabo's name, his upbringing, call us all Taters and rednecks and cow U and all that crap. They talked so much smack and held up their fingers every chance they got during their little "run". So no, I will pull against them in every sport they ever compete in. I hope they have another hundred and something years of trash football teams. My little sister is currently a student there and my sis-n-law has a masters from there.

That stadium was half empty back then

Maybe they were "sellouts", maybe some even showed up to the game from the alleyways...but by the third quarter they were gone. I can still recall the mass exodus for 63-17 - great fans they are.

Yeah, I used to have that attitude until I moved to the lowcountry and got my nose bloodied for five years.

I have to add my 2 cents worth here. I have not met many of those gracious USC fans the original poster writes of.

13 years ago, the family and I moved to a different part of the state, a part of the state with a significant USC fan base.

My wife wore an orange and white dress the first Sunday we visited the new church. The Clemson comments and jokes started that day and didn't end for the three years we were members there. I didn't know how uncomfortable she was until she announced she would not be going back. We found another church.

During the streak, the comments and jokes amped up to taunts and ridicule. She worked with an especially vocal man who was merciless toward all Clemson fans at their work place.

The summer before the streak ended we had an older woman driving a bumper sticker-laden car honk at us and give us the high-five.

Even though we wear our colors and fly our flags, we don't flaunt our victories; but we have been on the receiving end of lots of hostilities from some members of the USC fan base. Not one of our USC friends mentioned the championship victory. Not one.

I don't wish them ill, but I will not hope they win. Ever.

Go Tigers.

NO! If those coot fans never enjoy another

win...EVER...I'll feel no less sorry for the plight of those miserable dirt-peckers than I do right now.
I have some great coot-fan friends, but when it comes to any sort of competition (in anything) they can all choke on it as far as I'm concerned.

Born and raised in Pickens County, lived in Columbia for essentially 40 years. I'm with you bud. They have their freaks and the freaks deserve our disrespect.And I have experienced the freaks any game we lost at the Billy. But for the most part they are just the same sort of folks who join Civitan and go to church and work their jobs and either pull for their alma mater or for the hometown team. It is fun to give them crap but we have no business pretending that they are evil, unless we have evidence that they are. I would not want to be them because like Clemson they have always craved football success first, and never had nearly as much success in football as CU, even before the Dabo era. Interesting history for anyone old enough to remember. They bucked the ACC power structure (tobacco road, read UNC) back when, and kind of expected CU to follow suit. I think it was the wrong decision but kind of respect them for it. Tobacco road privilege is crap and lives on to this day.

it did not go for DW. With all due respect, he was probably blowing a bunch of smoke up your rear end. I have lived a long time, and been close to the rivalry. Believe me, a true Tiger does not want them to win a game in anything.

How did you get your pulse back to 100%?!!


Feb 15, 2017, 4:01 PM

I clicked on this post two weeks ago and you were at like 55 or something. I clicked on it again to read the replies and you are at 100. How bad do you have to cry to the mods to have them fix that? Curious, how many tissues did it take?

They did not fill a stadium for every game in the 0-11 year.
