How long does it take you to get to Clemson? (POLL)
Oct 8, 2012, 1:30 PM

A lot of the debate over early vs late games centers around the folks in the lowcountry and Pee Dee who have 4 or 5 hour drives to Clemson and HATE having to get home so late or get a hotel room. So let's take a poll on just how far everyone travels to get to home games:
My travel time to Clemson is... [Results]
| |
 |
Less than 1 hour |
|
1-2 hours |
|
2-3 hours |
|
3-4 hours |
|
4-5 hours |
|
5-6 hours |
|
6+ hours |

We travel about 3 and a half hours to Clemson, but for us, we would much rather prefer night games regardless of travel. We've left the house at 4AM, we've arrived home at 2AM. Either way, if it gives our tigers an advantage, we are happy.

6+ no matter how you slice it...

I was holding out for a later kickoff for VT since I'm flying in Saturday morning. i could shell another $100-$150 and skip out early on work and come in Friday night, but that's easier said than done.

better question would be who's willing to sacrifice........
Oct 8, 2012, 1:39 PM

a few late night driving hours to give CLEMSON an EXTRA advantage @ HOME?
plus it's not like we're asking for ALL night games..................1 or 2 per season would be just fine, but we've had 2 since '07 that's sad

It's awesome. I don't ever want to leave. I think it's great that all of you drive 3+ hours to get to games, it says a lot about our fan base.

Nooners make it difficult to get there early and enjoy any pregame...on the contrary, it does make for a nice afternoon postgame
