Gator Farr from the old days?
Throwing the rats hats away once the SC victory was in the bag?
The true country gentleman?
The rotc drum beating.
The campfire and effigy burning?
Climbing the greased flag pole in front of Tillman Hall?
Coach Howard's speech in the amphitheater?
ADD To THIS OLD GUYS

"Little Wednesday," the night before "Big Thursday." (Frosh teams)
I grew up in Columbia, have great memories of Clemson dressing at Dreher HS and then taking buses to stadium. Howard didn't like the distractions of the crowd at stadium.

Dang - we must've lost that year 'cause I still have my rat hat.
Seems that I mostly remember panty raids, Jane Fonda, horrific food in Harcombe Commons, etc. And - I hated the chickens almost as much as I do now.

the game was played at Clemson we stayed up all night to be sure no coots came up and deface any of the campus.
You left off after the pep rally throwing the head cheerleader into the pool at the Clemson House.

I believe it was the reflection pool at the amphitheater wasnt it?
I recall the rats throwing their hats in the air but most of us reclaimed them and many still have them
great times that will always be a part of our early lives

The "Take No Prisoners" ROTC banner at the top of the west end zone. Now it's politically incorrect.
