the same seat at Clemson's Memorial Stadium?
I've been sitting in the South Stands, Section UF, Row A, Seat 15. since the beginning of the 1958 season. So, I am in my 61st. year.

Salty --- I'm the only one who has had those two seats. Finally confirmed 1958 was the year when this addition was used. For a long time I thought it was 1957 but it always s pays to get the facts.

My poor health prevents me from even thinking about climbing steps like the old days. SO my super compfy Lazy-Boy recliner and 4K TV are working great for my old bones. Plus, the restroom is about 10 steps away, and all refreshments are easily accessed. Plus, I usually watch 2-3 games at a time on other devices, so I enjoy in my own way. I totally appreciate and envy those of you that attend the games. I also have too much pride to sit in the handicap areas in a wheelchair as I'm not helpless, even though someone recommended I do that. Nah - you guys keep up the good work, knowing it is appreciate by others. Nobody could barely hear me yell anyway, and my neighbors do not ever complain.

If I had to climb up or down, I would sit home like you but all I have to do is walk through the F/UF portal, turn right and sit on the first seat on Row A. I'm looking straight down at the west side 45 yard line.

That is cool. My folks had 2 seats on the top row of the south stands since the early '70s. When the upper deck was built, those seats went away, so they got 4 seats on the front row of the south upper deck. They kept them until 2014, the year after my dad died.
I've had my seats, TDI Row E, seats 30, 32 and 34 since about 2003 or so.

That's a long time. Congratulations and thanks for your loyal support. My seats changed in 2010 but I have not missed a home game since the 1971 season.
