Interesting development at DV today.

This year there will be increased security at all gates and there was new metal detectors in all the entrance areas that were part of an experiment today. No longer will there be parking along the Ave of Champions at the North end of the stadium. That entire area that once was premium parking will now be converted into a major entrance area for all on that end of the stadium. I expect a similar plan is in affect for the south stands as well. I didn’t go over on that side. It’s unfortunate that this has to happen but it’s the sign of the times I guess. The powers that be haven’t decided exactly what will happen in the East end zone as yet. We were told that, under no circumstances , would the hill entrance ever be changed. Apparently the new scoreboard will be a part of this change in the East end zone when it happens! Premium seating seems to be of major importance to everyone but I couldn’t find out just what was in the works. I really don’t think that anything has been decided as yet. Lots going on in Clemson Athletics. Be a part of it when you can.

Just hope larger scoreboard doesn’t affect the Greatest Team Entry in College FB!

If so, then I am more than fine with present & adequate size of replays on video screen!

Let me tell you how that was described today Bill. The balloon release that was halted was a Clemson habit. The entrance into DV by the football team, touching the rock, is a Clemson tradition and will NOT be altered! That is one thing that everyone on tnet will agree with! This AD and his staff do a darn good job in my opinion. The Clemson Tigers are at the very top and I (and you) expect them to stay there. Support Clemson 100%

I really am surprised that cars were allowed to park in those locations for so long after 9/11. I wonder how many more people will end up being assigned to shuttle served parking spaces?

Don't be surprised to see seating above the Hill....

in the next several years. It would be considered premium since the Tigers would run down the Hill directly beneath this seated location.
Go Tigers

I believe they define premium seating as luxury box type of seating with a lounge area,restrooms etc. I think that the East end zone will eventually be that kind of addition without eliminating “the hill” Just a guess on my part however

It's not a sign of the times, it's a sign of the lawyers...

There has yet to be any kind of attack/act of terrorism at any sporting event on US soil...much less in MFing Clemson,SC for God's sake...There have been countless instances of these things happening at shopping malls, churches and movies theaters though and I have yet to see any of these "security" measures implemented there...For one simple reason...It is bad for business and it drives customers away...Change my mind

suggesting we enlarge our "security theater" to now include parks? Twenty plus years after the fact?

Does the "security" prevent terrorism or is this all an illusion that is put in place by the State? Funny that all of these secure sites have never had bombs set off at the "Point of the Spear"...

Drones are what scares me! An armed drone could easily wipe out any arena or stadium in minutes. I’m not sure how they are controlled. I suspect that they are not
