What road trips have you made to see Clemson play on the road?

For me so far: Duke, Florida State, North Carolina, Notre Dame, Pitt, and Wake Forest. Except for some of the outcomes, all were good trips.
Your Clemson road trips? Good trips? Bad trips?

UGA - Worst fans ever TAMU - Great fans, very hospitable. USuC - You can figure that one out. UNC - Meh NC State - Worst fans in ACC. FSU - great trip, fans are mostly respectable. Miami - great trip, fans are mostly not there. Maryland - obnoxious group Wake - it's a mostly Clemson crowd when we play there. UK - Similar to USuC fans.

Rev: I’ve been to a few Florida games over the years beginning with the Gator Bowl c. 1969. I have never seen a more obnoxious fan base ever. Ever!

FSU - 2006 (Great win at the end) and 2014 (from the Nike Suite... So close, should have won it).
Ga Dome - 2012 Auburn - Brent Veneables first game as DC.
Ga Dome - 2012, LSU - What a great game and finish!!
GT - '09,'11,'16,'18. 2010 was painful b/c we couldn't finish the comeback. '16 & '18 made up for it.
Wake - 2022 - Crazy game back and forth. DJ's best game, maybe ever. Defense was bad that day.
Duke - 2023 - I don't want to talk about it. Ever.

in addition to road games at Notre Dame, Auburn, Texas A&M, Georgia, Missouri, Tennessee, Kentucky and, of course, UofSC.
I won't even bother listing all of the bowl and CFP games.

I only ever made two, and both were disasters. Went to see us play in Booby-Dodd

against the Nerds in 1975, which happened to be the infamous "fumble, kick it ahead into the end zone, and then fall on it for a touchdown" play that beat us 33-28. And, to end the year, I was in attendance at the worst ever Clemson vs Coot game in Cootlumbia, the 56-20 debacle at the hands of Jeff Grantz and the Veer offense the Coots ran to perfection that day. That was enough to permanently sour me on road trips.

Regular Season: Winston Salem (Wake Forest) Raleigh (NCSU) Durham (Duke) Atlanta (Georgia Tech) College Park (Maryland) Tuscaloosa (Alabama) - we lost 56-0, but I was a kid at the time; it didn't really affect me. Auburn (Auburn) - one of the hottest and most aggravating game. K. Parker was speared in the back by N. Farley. We should have won that game. Athens (Georgia) Columbia (SCar) - never been when we lost, so these were good trips
Post/Bowl Season: Tampa Atlanta (multiple times) Miami - the worst trip due to outcome Jacksonville

I went to UNC when Sam Howell almost beat us and went to Wake forest for Djs best game ever.
I loved the food trucks at wake forest, it blows our food options out of the water.

UNC (L 1995), Wake (W 2006), UGA (two Ls in 1991 and 1994), GT (doesn't really count as I live here) (five Ws and eight Ls), NC State (one W and one L 2001 and 2003), Miami (2 Ws 2004 and 2009), and Auburn (L 2010).
I thought the Auburn fanbase was the friendliest. The UNC tailgating scene was the lamest. Georgia was well you know... Georgia. My lone Wake game was the most thrilling (the Gaines Adams blocked FG return).
Surprised in my 51 years on earth that I have yet to visit SC, FSU, and Duke.

Went to Va tech, Wake, Gt, Georgia and Coot u several times. Coot u and Georgia fans are completely obnoxiuos fools. Va Tech is Beautiful, Wake was mostly clemson fans, as was Georgia Tech. I have been to several Peach bowls, Citrus Bowls, anf Gator Bowls, and enjoyed them a lot. Road trips are fun, but enjoyed tail gating in parking lot 5 at home games the most

When I was a kid I went to every away ACC venue in the mid to late 70’s thru the early 80’s. I was at every home and away game the year we won the 1st national championship including Tulane in the dome and at Boston College. I always liked our trips to Charlottesville. Not much of a game usually but the campus and surrounding area is beautiful. My disdain for UGA began back in those days and continues today. They SUCK. The worst ever with the cawks right behind them on my sh^% list.
More recently we’ve been to Louisville, Syracuse, Pitt, Texas A&M, Miami, FSU, GA Tech, Wake, NC state, Va Tech, Glendale and Tampa national championship games. I know it’s unbelievable considering the reputation of the Texas A&M fans but the Louisville fans were even friendlier the year we went up there 😳 . They were going out of their way to come and speak to us!!!!

Most memorably was when I was younger n high school and a large group of families took an amtrak from Charlotte to Maryland. This was right after 911. Me and a buddy went to see the damage at the pentagon but no pictures were aloud. Marylands fans were terrible but Clemson won. Also bought a fake ID in Georgetown. Good times

The first college game I can remember attending was not a Clemson game. It was Wake Forest at SC. My Boy Scout troop attended. Brian Piccolo played for WF & Dan Reeves for the Gamecocks. I remember them carrying Reeves off the field in a skin cast walking right by me at the end of the game.

Tampa natty ACCCG Orlando Citrus Bowl Gator Bowl Peach Bowl
I still want to go to Louisville and BC while we are still in the ACC…and Notre Dame. No interest in visiting Chapel Hole, Durham, Raleigh, Atlanta, Charlottesville, or Miami…been to those places, but not for a football game. Also minimal interest in Pitt or Syracuse…never been, never care to. Guess you could add Dallas and San Fran to the list of places I’ve been to that I don’t need to revisit for a football game.
Worst fans for me (after SCAR) were FSU; dishonorable mention to UGA and VT Best fans were Auburn
Many campuses I would love to visit in other conferences, so I’ll watch the realignment carousel turn…

Duke,Florida State,Georgia,Georgia Tech,North Carolina,South Carolina,Virginia and Wake Forest...Some good outcomes and some not so much...Georgia was the worst fan base and South Carolina had its' moments but no where near like having going to Athens, especially for a night game and the 1984 game
