Clemson Traditions

Noticed changes to the hill ceremony that opens the games. Happen to agree with this guy: https://theclemsoninsider.com/2024/09/23/why-is-clemson-messing-with-the-most-exciting-25-seconds-in-college-football/

Reminded me of a story I wrote for The Tiger almost 20 years ago. You can view the feature "Clemson Traditions" on page 4 here: https://open.clemson.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?params=/context/tiger_newspaper/article/2499/&path_info=0j6gvjj6zg0nj54n5q6bisyl1y0919to.pdf

Agree with the article 100%

The new entrance is very disjointed. I don't mind the hype videos, but they should be between the alma mater and orange bowl/tiger rag/the hill. And we will rock you can get sent back to friday nights where it belongs.

My brother called me last night and ask (seriously) if the buses drove around the stadium and if the players ran down the hill. He was at the game!! Because of all the distractions (two videos) he did not remember seeing the buses arrive and the players unloading at the top of the hill.
I agree, this new idea and format needs to go the way of the 3rrrrrddddd dowwwwwn idiot. If I were to guess, all this delay at the top of the hill has something to do with TV broadcast timing.
I wonder how it would be to play one or both of these hype videos just before the band enters the field?
