I will gladly wear purple to military appreciation day. First time in purple at a Clemson game, but I think my grandfather would have liked the symbolism. B*****g about wearing our secondary color to a game where it may actually mean something comes across, to me, as petty for a Clemson man.

I thought I once heard if your parent won a purple heart you got a tuition break in a SC school. I found this out years after my dad passed and he never lived in SC only I did.
Is there any truth to that. I know purple heart recipients can supposed park anywhere with the right kind of tag in SC.

It does not apply to me specifically, but I'm glad the state of SC does all that.

I'm just shocked how you go so much text in the subject

Not really, I know how you do it.
BUT, the mentality Tigernet is having is proving that Clemson is incapable of having a white-out as good as Penn State can do it (purple-out in our case).
