Does the student who is The Tiger get paid for the non-game events he attends? Like weddings and such? I know that people have to pay to have The Tiger there, but wasn't sure about how that worked with the student who IS The Tiger. And what about when he's at game-related events, like on College Gameday? How many Tiger outfits do we have? Just some curious thoughts as I wait for the end of my work day and the beginning of my 4-day weekend, capped off by a Clemson win in the Sugar Bowl!
I worked in the athletic department during my time as a student. I don't know the answers to most of these questions but I would guess they might get a small cut of outside events. I do know that the tryouts for the tiger are intense and very selective
