What's the best Clemson game you missed/couldn't attend or

didn't get to watch. For me it was 63-17. Technically I was there but we sat in the parking lot all game. My college roommate was a coot fan whose parents had season tickets. My wife, roommate, and I drove from Boone to Columbia and they didn't have any extra tickets, so we just listened to it on the radio. It probably worked out best for my roommate, he started an impromptu drinking game where he would chug a beer every time Chad Jasmin scored.

The 1981 NC game in the Orange Bowl. However, I did watch on TV while sitting in a hot tub with two lovely ladies (clothing not allowed)with the water in the tub and the champaigne both dyed orange. All was not lost.

I agree with the National Championship game. I was a student at Clemson at the time so didn't have the money to travel to the Orange Bowl, but I did watch the game on TV and also had champagne on tap. It was legal to drink at 18 back then.

gathered with a crowd of Clemson friends. My youngest brother, whose blood is orange, had stopped by my home with some friends enroute to Miami and d@mn near ate and drank up everything I had. When they "threatened" to stop by on their return, I told them I would be out of town. LOL After the game our crowd went to a nightclub here in Columbia to celebrate; the DJ stopped the music, announced our championship, and the entire crowd started cheering. What a time to remember!

The Miami game in Death Valley. That game ended up setting the record for loudest game in NCAA history for a while.
