I was part of two National Championship teams at Clemson

and I can tell you that my Clemson class ring is far more important and meaningful to me than either of those Championships.

Chick I took on a date two weeks ago asked me.....

"Will you always were that ring"....I said yes.
She asked, "Even when you get married?"...I said yes.
She said "two rings don't look right".
Haven't called her back.

Can someone explain why a ring is so important?

Never understood the allure of any type of commemorative jewelry, specifically with sports and school.

I don't have one

Couldn't afford it when I graduated with my BS and never got around to purchasing one. but have no doubt, people know where I went to school. I don't need a ring to show that. I don't see it as a big deal.

Because I don't understand why there's value

in commemorative jewelry. I went to Clemson. I have a paper that shows I did. I remember actually being there. I don't come from a Clemson family, so I have no concept of why a ring means anything, which is why I was asking in the first place. Just seems like a waste of money to me, but so does all jewelry.

Steeped in tradition, the Clemson ring always connects alumni far beyond the school itself and graduation.
People have recognized my Clemson ring as far away as Europe and Hawaii.
