The 18-hour, one-day round trip taken by Colorado's equipment truck -- in case the Buffaloes were needed to play in the Pac-12 title game -- was a perfect encapsulation of a wild 2020 season.
It would be cool to hear about the Clemson truck driver. Some amazing trips over the last 10 years I am guessing. I know we have an amazing equipment department. @davidhood could be a good offseason article?!
Yeah member the time they loaded everything up drove all the way to Tallahassee and then once they got there turned around and drove back. I’m sure that would be a great story. Stupid FSU
I was a student equip mgr from 93-97 and all I can

say is the driver we had, Stan, was a beast. He talked like Boomhowser (spelling??) from King of Hill. Guy smoked 2 packs a day I swear. Always upbeat and always tried to get that truck as close to locker room as possible for us. I swear he was ready to get out a welding torch in Tallahassee to remove part of the beams under stadium so he could back trailer up to the door of locker. Hell in Athens, he let all the air out of suspension and air out of tires so he could get trailer down to locker.
