I know alot of Clemson fans have articulated how much they appreciated Aggieland, so this may be redundant, but I haven't had a chance yet and wanted to say a quick thanks.

I asked this board weeks ago for advice about bars & restaurants, and was given great insights. We went to Corkscrew in Spring on the way from Houston Friday, and it was amazing. In CS we got to Chicken Oil Company, Carney's Pub, Dixie Chicken, Dry Bean (twice), Rough Draft (Three times), Duddley's Draw and Mad Hatters, plus a taco truck, Torchy.s, and Fuegos. Loved them all (we have a lower bar for great tacos than y'all).

I was extremely impressed by the number and quality of big smokers at the tailgates!

Most of all, I just really appreciate the culture you all nurture. It was the same when I visited in 2004. The main thing that I value about the Clemson football experience (at home) is that it always renews my faith in this nation. There is so much anger, selfishness, self-pity, attacking others, and general awfulness going around, and then at Clemson on Saturdays I experience precisely the opposite. What I experienced at College Station was what I experience at Clemson, and it is comforting to know there is another set of Americans doing good work 1,000 miles to the west. Game recognizes game.

I can't vouch for every single Tiger, but in general and as a collective, we honor our traditions, admire those who serve and sacrifice for this nation, welcome visitors to our community, and have a good go at fun & drinking while understanding how not to get sloppy and belligerent. You all clearly build your culture around the same core principles. I only regret that I will likely not get back to Aggieland again! Hopefully our ADs schedule another round. I'm 47, so the clock is ticking!

We play the chickens every year. Why not come back, throw on Maroon & White, and show us how to properly host South Carolina?

I couldn't list all the reasons, but Clemson is part of the bedrock of college football. It's too bad you aren't in the SEC, you'd be a perfect fit. But the sport needs the ACC to be good too, so I guess it is better this way. Thanks for visiting!

This. You don't have to come here for a Clemson game per se.

Great bull

Thanks for your kind words!

Please do come back to CS. The clock ticks well beyond 47, sir.

Tip of the hat to you, sir.

Glad you had a great time in Aggieland! Thanks for the post.

thanks for the kind words. Happy that you had a great time.

Great. Yes, we are the finest institution, students, former students and fans you will experience on a gameday. However, we should have sent you home miserable with a loss.

As of this point in time we are planning on doing exactly that for the NC game. Cereal.

Good Bull!!!

You have convinced me that I could live happily in SC. Thank you. However, it is too far to travel to BCS.

Thanks and sincerely hope you're not tooooo affected by the storm. Stay safe!

Good bull

Hopefully Flo doesn't do too much damage to the Carolinas.

Just good manners to write a thank you note. Good stuff. Best wishes.
