Just realized something weird


Sep 13, 2018, 8:45 PM

I have been a Clemson fan for 40+ years, and I have been to as many away games at current SEC team venues as I have at ACC venues. 3 each. I did go to an away game at Maryland in 1986, but the game was in Baltimore. Does that count?

The press box game! Both Danny Ford and Bobby Ross not allowed on the sideline.
I was there.

I would let you call it an away game venue. Better than the crappy Byrd stadium on their campus with their unpleasant fans. (Being polite)

It is no surprise that I have met no one that misses Maryland in the ACC. Even when they were still in the ACC, I quit going to games in College Park (and I could get there in about 30 minutes). TV was preferable.

LOL I was a freshman

Me and a buddy bought unsold seats on a fraternity charter bus. I would not advise this to current or future freshmen!

Everyone seems to talk about MD fans as if they are horrible. I went to 2 games there and no trouble- fully deck out in orange and cheering like crazy, surrounded by their fans.

NC State, on the other hand... it was Bowden’s first year, I think, maybe his second. The refs screwed us out of a win -they were suspended by the ACC, I think that was the first time the ACC suspended refs, NC State won by 4 after the help and fans were throwing beer bottles at Clemson fans afterwards. I was nearly hit twice. A few years later there were some people shot there. I was not surprised.
