Clemson Ring Ceremony


Nov 4, 2019, 1:40 PM

Can't believe how big a deal the ring ceremony is now. When I got my ring in 1984 there was no fanfare, no parade, no big crowd in Littlejohn, no president to present it to me, etc. I got notification it was at the bookstore and walked down to pick it up by myself.

I feel cheated.

I mean, it's cool we all have a similar ring, but let's not invent new "traditions". That is cootish behavior. Next thing you know, we'll all be holding up a "3" with our fingers at the beginning of the 3rd quarter.

Besides, a Clemson man needs no introduction.

I know we all dislike coots, but to hate on a symbol that brings attention to mental illness...trying to help keep people alive????

Don’t you make a living helping people with mental issues? This sounds like a tradition you would try to help get off the ground. I guess I was wrong.

Didn't they do that before any of this was a thing?

Kinda like that stupid chicken crowing when they celebrate "And its another Carolina...first down!".

Every time we play them I always insert "Its another Clemson...touch down!". And then start chanting SEC! SEC! SEC!

I wondered the same, but I kinda assumed that I was just

If she's a hollerer, she'll be a screamer.
If she's a screamer, she'll get you arrested.


My ring ceremony was walking down to the book store
