Was Mickey being serious this morning?

I can’t believe that any Clemson folks would not go to Charlotte because of the weather.
I lived in Pickens County for most of my life but have lived in Alaska for the last seven years. How is this for perspective? My daughter will be enjoying recess when it’s as cold as -20°F outside when she begins K5 next year.
Bundle up and go paint Charlotte orange, y’all. Do it for me. I would give a lot to be able to go.

I think a lot of fans do not care to spend 100's of USD to go sit in an NFL stadium outdoors at 8pm on a Saturday night. A lot is going on this time of year.
I would absolutely go if given tickets but I would rather donate the money I would have spent on the NIL collective and watch it on TV.

I am sure there are some but not a ton. I would imagine the older folks, anyone who can't risk getting sick (immuno-compromised) etc are going to bail due to the weather.
Midday kickoff in the 50's with sunshine feels a lot better than low 30's, high 20's with no sun at night.
I mean I don't like the forecast either but I'll be there

Just layer up, thirty degrees is not that bad when dressed properly.

I suggest hot hands warmers for gloves and shoes. I cold concrete makes it bad. I’ve been at army navy in Philly in snow and nfl games too. It makes a difference. Available at wal mart is sporting goods.

I live in the charlotte area and have been to our last 5 championship game appearances, but the product this year makes it harder to justify spending money to watch us in the cold. My warm couch has a better view anyway.

I live in Mooresville and I am with you. Not sure I want to spend all that $ to watch the same product on the field that showed up for GA, Louisville, And USUCK.
I can watch it on my 82” TV in the comfort of my home where I can turn it off if the team that showed for one of those 3 games rears its ugly head in this one!
Go Tigers!

Unfortunately I have a must wedding to go to but I will get to watch on tv. I’m 77 and this will be my first ACC game Clemson involved in
Charlotte that I’ve missed. We really need a win in the biggest way to start the upward trend of our program.

I've got 85 reasons to stay at home and watch especially if tickets stay at the current prices. Now if they come down.....

I've been probably 8 times & every year it's either cold, raining or both!! And every yr Clemson brings approx 40k fans! The opposing fanbase brings 10 - 15k & there will be 15 - 20k empty seats.

Exactly. Always an 8:00 game too. The weather sat will by far not be the worst we’ve sat in for this game. See ya there.

Break out your winter gear and come on out

While you’re here, stop by Charlotte Knights stadium, especially if you have kids. They turn the whole thing into a winter fun park with ice skating rink and a sledding ride.

the bigger issue is more likely the concern about traveling and paying to watch yet another disappointing performance.

yes , tired of watching the same dumb coaching blunders game after game, same unfixed special teams mistakes, an inconsistent offense with no real game plan . I can see Sammy Brown riding the bench now while SMU runs all over us . There is not enough coaching experience or expertise on this staff to expect a prepared team to show up prepared and ready to execute. been waiting all year to see it .

Because it was a 9:30 p.m. start. So not going because of weather is entirely possible. Plus the ticket prices are outrageous.

I highly doubt the weather is that big of an issue. The L to SC has more to do with it than anything.

did not seem likely so they are not going. In my group of folks, 5 out of 7 are in that boat. But me and the one other will be there!
