My favorite Fridge Memories (share yours)


Aug 14, 2013, 11:42 AM

Being a Clemson kid born in the seventies, Fridge hit Tigertown when I was 7. He was my favorite player. I remember him taking out all three options on a triple option play. I remember him throwing the center into the qb for a sack. But mostly, I remember how big he smiled. I think I may have the lifesize poster my dad got at Judge Kellers.

I ran into him about ten years ago in a convenience store, he bought them out of the pork chops I was waiting in line for. We sat down and talked for 15 minutes. What a pleasant and unassuming person.

-He would always give me a low five after every home game.

-Life sized Frdige poster on my wall. Loved it.

-He beat a Maryland running back down the line on a 4th and goal stretch play. Despite moving lateraly and faster than their tailback, he stood up the runner.

--He gave me a sweatband.

NFL, I believe it was the Packers) and there was some pushing and shoving going on between him and the players on the sidelins when The Fridge took two steps back and motioned for them all to "come on"!! Nobody on their benched stepped forward!!

I had a couple of classes with him my Freshmen year....


Aug 14, 2013, 12:11 PM

and also being a student-athlete, I would also see him around Jervey fairly frequestly.

He was always a very freindly and likeable guy and he always had that great big ole perma-grin painted on his face.

I remember being in summer school and playing basketball at Fike. One day, Fridge comes in and is shooting hoops. I saw him dunk the basketball without a running start (i.e. flat-footed). It was unbelieveable!
