Clemson, SC-Clemson fans may purchase Mazda Tangerine Bowl tickets
through the Clemson Ticket Office and have them donated to the Dream Ticket Clearinghouse of Central Florida. Clemson Ticket Manager Van Hilderbrand made the announcement on Wednesday. Tickets will be used by Youth Organizations in the Orlando area. Donors will receive acknowledgement from the Clearinghouse and the Clemson Athletic Department for their donation. Shannon Travrides of the Florida Citrus Sports Foundation oversees this project. Fans can call 1-800-CLEMSON, (864) 656-2118 or (864) 656-2115 to order tickets. "Clemson fans contributed almost 1000 tickets to youth groups in the Boise, ID area last year for the Humanitarian Bowl," said Hilderbrand. "It was very well received and we have had fans ask about a similar program this year. We hope Clemson fans who can't go to the Tangerine Bowl will donate a ticket so a young person can enjoy the game."
