I hear your ‘pain’. I am the mom of a Clemson alum, who now lives near Huntsville, AL... I was in AL a few years back when the ‘war eagles’ beat the ‘roll tide’... Very interesting to observes the fall out. My Clemson alum proudly wore his Clemson tee shirt to the snarls of many.
Just yesterday, my husband and I were on a cruise and were wearing our Clemson shirts. We walked by a group wearing Alabama shirts and they booed at us. Loudly.
“I am the mom of a Clemson alum”
I am also! She’s attended a home game at least once year SINCE 1997...no matter where she’s lived! Also, there are “Clemson Clubs” all over the USA. It’s been fun for her! Great school!
