What's the idea behind purple for Military Appreciation Day? Purple Heart?

That being the case; I say go with the purple, for only this game. All other games leave the Orange alone.

Yeah Im just not a big fan of the purple. I know it is a school color but all orange is just the way to go in my opinion.

Not a huge deal.


Aug 15, 2013, 7:45 PM

The folks behind it mean well. I can wear a purple shirt to one game.

My vote!


Aug 15, 2013, 7:57 PM

YES!!

Purple afterall, IS one our team colors.

ONE GAME is not to kill anyone.

Besides, any veteran in the stands that is a Purple heart recipient will certainky appreciate it. That alone would worth everyone elses "grief" about it.

Go Tigers!!!

Orange!

While I do like the intent of the purple out I prefer the orange. As to why the purple heart is well, purple, it was originally a purple cloth badge called the Badge of Military Merit and was purple in color. It was designed by George Washington and was intended to be a recognition of gallantry, fidelity and service.

While I am greatly honored by the gesture from the student body, a greater honor would be thank those from previous generations who never received the due respect they earned while fighting unpopular wars. My father was one of those Vets who returned from Vietnam and never once spoke of his actions until recently. Their sacrifice is what should be celebrated on military appreciation day from a University with deep ties to the military.

As always, I'm honored to be a Clemson Tiger, Orange or Purple.

I will wear a purple polo, but I prefer the players wear orange and white.***

Meh...I can take it or leave it.

I see what they are trying to do, and their heart (no pun intended) is in the right place, but I just prefer the orange.
