Fans rushing the field

Tonight, I watched the Clemson game all the way from NYC with clenched teeth praying for a victory!
Watching the fans rush the field at the end of the game brought tears to my eyes. I knew somewhere in there was my dad pulling for the Tigers! Some of you may know him as "Spud"- as he's called here.
Some of my earliest memories are of him lifting me over that wall when I was really small, then later helping me jump over it! He always raised me to be a loyal and faithful friend, and he taught me that through football! To be a fan through good and bad, to always follow through to support your team, and to stay for the whole game no matter what! What a great win tonight for a great fan base!
Although I wasn't there physically, but I was there in spirit celebrating one of our greatest victories! To those of you in the valley tonight, enjoy your night in God's Country, one of the most beautiful places on earth as the number one team on earth!
It's great to be a Clemson Tiger!!!!

entire game with my other child in the corner of the stadium, sec. KK. We didn't have room in our regular seats for him, so I stood the entire game and had a ball. But, one of the neatest things was watching a young fan in about his late 20's holding his 2 year old up, pig tails and all. It reminded me of 1989, when I held my own 2 year old on my shoulders the entire game in Tallahassee....Another wonderful evening in its own right. Anyway, what a great thread to read when I got in tonight. No father is prouder than I am right now.....

Great picture and I really like the rain gear you're wearing. Seeing how rain is the new normal for home games, may I ask where you found those jackets? TIA

probably 25 or so, but he just wasn't putting his soul into it. Finally, when Cain busted loose, I turned around a gave him a high five and he leans forward and says, " Sir, I'm a Gamecock, but I'm trying to keep it low key".......I said," Sorry about that Pard "...............He was a good boy though......no problems whatsoever...
