How much did going to Saturdays game cost you in $ & time?


Sep 8, 2019, 3:55 PM

For me at my ripe old age, in a small rv boondocking free, most meals in..but needing tix, gas to & from, concessions, window decals (scratch that), etc.,

last 2 home games cost me approx $300-$350 each game..and 600 miles round trip at 5-6 hrs of driving at 0- 80mph (so 1200 miles & approx 24 hrs total).

which is a drop in the bucket when I was younger with 4 season tix, family of 4 to feed, gas, etc.

How bout you?

Me, personally...

Ticket + my portion of tailgate food + gas = approximately $180
Time = 12 hours. (Round trip from Greer)

12 hours from Greer! You made a wrong turn some place. I send less than 8 hours round trip and I live just a short drive from virginia

I was giving total time expended.

Actual drive-time was about 2.5 hours thanks to an accident on 123 going home last night. The remaining time was spent at tailgate and roasting myself in the 95 degree heat.

I budget $1000 a game for wife and I at Clemson


Sep 8, 2019, 4:05 PM

maybe $500 for a game in NC that I can go to without a Hotel. $1500 for ACC Championship. $2500 for a bowl game. I only go to 2-3 games a year so I always buy good seats which ups the cost.

With 7 games


Sep 8, 2019, 4:20 PM

7 games and I split the cost with a buddy... We are spending about $450 each. That doesn't include other costs for items already bought and paid for like a generator, satellite, TV, chairs, table, etc. That's just the tickets, parking, food, beverages and gas.

Bowl games are usually in the $3,000 and up range.

Cost me gas from my house to Gaffney to meet my Son and then back to the house. All the food I could eat and top shelf I could drink. Did I mention it had A/C and some nice surroundings. What a day!! Time: 13 hrs from my door and back, total

LBB, Where do you park in Clemson?

Do you ride a bicycle around campus when you are in Clemson?
