Who is all going??? 

I know the turnout may not be as big since it is not in Charlotte this year but knowing I am only 45 minutes from the campus, I just knew I had to go to it, not just for me but it will be my 4 year old son's first big football experience so it's pretty exciting for him too!

That said, if you are planning on making the trip down to Clemson from Charlotte, definitely check out Tiger Town Tavern... Pretty well known spot in downtown Clemson. If you are eying places to eat, your best bet is heading over towards Anderson (although Clemson has gotten a lot better with variety since I lived over there a long time ago.) or head down 123 towards Seneca and there are several places over there too (just not as big as Anderson.) 

Hope that helps some folks out that are not familiar with the area... Maybe others can chime in too and hope to see some of y'all there!

Or go to Greenville. Light years better than Clemson.

I have been debating,  was strongly considering this past weekend but that has changed to doubtful. I just think a 2 hr ride there and 2hr ride back to the charlotte area isnt worth it. They have a 11am practice on Saturday, imma just Try to make that.

Horrible Idea on Teppers part lol. Clemson is basically Georgia and they can barely get 1-2k out in Charlotte for a free practice

I am curious about turnout in general. Have they been able to get more than a 50-60 person headcount any day so far?

Dunno, they had reserved online tickets, and then most of those people didn't show up after the first couple days so then they said people could walk up day of for tickets but the stands still looked pretty empty. Feels like more people would have shown up to Spartanburg out of tradition

It's also closer to, IDK....the actual fanbase?

I have worked in Clemson a bunch over the years. Never seen or met a Panthers fan in almost 20 years of going there.

Sounds about right. The Greenville sports stores primarily carry college merch, from SC to UGA

Have to get into NC before I see Panthers gear for sale

      Nailed it! Chiefs got #10 overall (and selected Mahomes) and sent the Bills #27, #91, and a 2018 first-rounder (ended up being #18) to pick the QB that has kept them out of the Super Bowl. 💀 Tbf to the Bills tho, they turned those picks into Tre'Davious White, Dion Dawkins, Tremaine Edmunds, and Siran Neal. Three out of four hits ain't bad at all, but that one for one for KC... ooh wee mayne.

      LSU receiver Lacy found dead

      Yep. Happens to a lot of talented kids. I just think a lot of people don't understand that just because this kid is super talented doesn't mean he's going to make it to the pros. Most of them won't. Some will get injured. Some will run into trouble off the court/field. Some won't put in the work. The catering greatly increases the odds of the latter two. Then most will simply just not be good enough to make it to the pros. Either way, it all adds up to a long shot and the kids need to have solid plan Bs. A few years back my HS had the #1 RB recruit on the nation. He originally committed to UGA but flipped to Bama and was getting decent playing time as a true freshman before obliterating his ankle. He was never the same again after that. Never made it to the pros. Not sure what happened to him but evidently he wasn't the brightest bulb and was basically just getting passed through school to stay academically eligible. I don't think he was a bad kid, never really heard anything like that. He just wasn't all that bright and all the eggs were in the football basket.
