Gameday "Paw" out
Sep 27, 2015, 8:19 AM
|
|
So this is what I read about Gameday. Copied from We Love Clemson: Looks like there's a STRONG movement started among Clemson fans that plan to attend ESPN College GameDay when they come to Clemson next week. No signs. No words. Just Tiger Paws. Orange and White Tiger Paws EVERYWHERE. No one will remember Clemson if we're the same as everyone else. No one remembers the silly signs or the banners that every other school puts in front of the GameDay cameras. Think about how unusual GameDay would be with ONLY Tiger Paws. After next Saturday, everyone will remember the PAW!

The "Paw and Death Valley" need to be the only signs.

Remember, less is more, so a simple ??PAW is More!
Sep 28, 2015, 5:53 PM
|
|
But, you could spice it uP by using one or more PAWs, big or little PAWs, PAW flags, PAW towels, PAW banners, PAW kites, PAW handkerchiefs, PAW gloves, etc.
Whatever..and remember your sign could still have a neat saying on one side, and an Orange PAW on the other.
GoTiGERS ??

I think if enough people on here talk about it, they share it with friends. Friends share it. etc etc.
A lot of people look on here, use this site, and I guarantee a lot more will this week. So if this post stays up on the front page, this movement will come through. We just have to do our part in sharing and keeping the post on the front page.

wearing all orange makes a more striking impression.
Sep 27, 2015, 9:45 AM
|
|
Gimmicks that only about a quarter of the stadium participate in make no real impression. Eventually some new generation has to get this.

I agree everyone should also wear orange. This is not for the game. Just for the ESPN college game day show. Instead of people holding a bunch of random signs they can all hold a sign with the Paw

I would miss the clever signs but,
Sep 27, 2015, 9:59 AM
|
|
It would demonstrate huge support for the University, the team, and it's brand. It may also be a statement to the ESecPN network that Clemson is an island. But who knows. As long as them Tigers win Saturday they can hold up the same old jorts, cargo, or whatever pants sign that "every other funniest clone ever" holds up.

The biggest cliches we commit are the zombie nation song
Sep 27, 2015, 12:29 PM
|
|
and the 'I believe that we will win' memes.
Having signs that are at least variations of other ones are far less cliche.
Furthermore, the best way to show support for your school is to show up, be loud and wear orange.
Fix those things, which should be easy, and then we can look for less important ways to show how special/awesome we are.

Sep 27, 2015, 11:35 PM

of, it would be the other things I mentioned.
I'm not against the paw sign idea, I just would prefer we go after other cliches first...or concurrently. I was just using this as an opportunity, since people seemed to be aware of the crappiness of cliches, to apply that logic to some other bad habits as well.

With regards to showing school spirit...

Coming to campus, wearing orange and yelling like nutjobs > holding a paw sign.
If we can handle the first part then I will gladly get on the latest bandwagon.

If you disagree you could do so without ripping your panties off in anger. Anybody who says shut up 4 times in one post needs a nap or a timeout.

Dumb idea. Reading the signs in the background is the second best part of Game Day (with picks being the best).

Many personalities already mention Clemson Gameday experience as one of the most unique in the entire country and we didn't do anything special or unusual the last time except just show up and be our normal rowdy selves!

Dumb idea. I'm not doing it. The PAW is on just about everything we own. I'll have a PAW on my hat, my shirt my sign...my whole sign is NOT going to be just a PAW. People already know that Clemson is the PAW. This is a stupid gimmick and gimmicks are well....lame. Go Tigers, BEAT Notre Lame!
