Anybody else get aggravated when a helicopter circled the stadium the entire game, and the parking lot after the game? So,they were taking pictures of the game? Must have been rookie cameramen. OK,it was shown on Clemson board that they were taking pictures of the game. Never saw any, have you? It's just that it changed the atmosphere of Clemson.

It was circling all afternoon to get arial footage for the ABC telecast of the game. Apparently the trusty blimp was replaced with a helicopter? And yes, I found it quite obnoxious.

It was announced at the game that it was ABC taking aerial shots of the game. Helicopter instead of blimp.

Very annoying to the point of distracting. I could barely hear the National Anthem due to the noise coming out of the helicopter as it was hovering overhead the stadium - downright disrespectful. Gotta think this is a safety hazard as well. If that helicopter were to have a mechanical malfunction it is gonna crash and kill a bunch of people - either in the stands or in the tailgates.... I sure hope the University "vetoes" this helicopter TV coverage in the future.

My thoughts exactly! I was saying this to my family during the game. It is noisy and a hazard to the safety of the spectators.

Hated having helicopter

overhead. Aircraft should not be allowed over large crowds. I remember running in the Peachtree race in Atlanta, many moons ago, and all the news helicopters hovering above the thousands of runners. Just glad they didn't crash into each other.

And near the end of game their aerial shot Was The Shot shown on TV as the play developed. Unreal & I loved it even though I knew it was making noise & distraction.
Maybe a Drone next time!

All of you need to get a life. The down draft from that chopper is what pushed the NCSU field goal attept wide right at the end of regulation. You all should be thanking ABC/ESPN/Disney. Don't you realize it's all part of the conspiracy to keep Clemson undefeated?
