GAME DAY IN DEATH VALLEY

WELCOME TO DEATH VALLEY
Death Valley is officially known as Memorial Stadium
There are just some places that every college football fan has to visit and see a game. For me those places include Notre Dame Stadium, The Big House at Michigan, The Cotton Bowl for a Red River Shootout between Oklahoma and Texas just to name a few.  This year I got to travel to Death Valley on the Campus of Clemson University. This is One of the Best game day atmospheres in all of College Football. The Tiger Walk, Howard's Rock, Tiger Rag and "Running down the Hill" makes for a game day environment that is impressive to any college football fan. When I attended the Tigers were ranked #3 in the country and expectations were high. As we were walking in from the parking lots in the colors of an opposing team we were greeted several time with "Welcome to Clemson," or "Glad You are Here." We found the Clemson fans Passionate and devoted but for the most part, polite and respectful. In the stadium, the 86,000+ fans were loud and definitely know how to give their Team a big home field advantage. My visit to Clemson's Memorial Stadium was a Bucket List trip for me and I am glad I was able to scratch it off of my list. Hats off to Clemson and the Tiger Nation.
