Thank you to a Tiger Fan

I rarely post on here, but have been a long time "lurker." However, after Saturday I feel the need to say thank you to a Tiger fan that made my day, and more importantly made my 4 1/2 year old daughter's day. We were walking up to the stadium looking for some "cheap seats" and I approached a gentleman holding up 2 tickets. I asked him what he was asking for them and he handed them to me and said "have fun, you two enjoy the game on me." I know this happens all the time at Tigertown, but these seats were literally on the 50, 9 rows behind the Clemson bench. All the talk on here about "lack of toughness, uninspired hill run, TB is horrible, etc etc" doesn't mean much to me this morning because all I know was I was able to spend some time with my daughter having a great time watching the tigers play.
I love to see the Tigers win as much as anyone, but part of the joy of it all is just being at the game with your family and friends. Anyways, thanks to the Tiger fan that made our day, whoever you are.

is typical unless we get the tickets back from opposing team or it's a Top 25 type game/big opponent.

When I say corners of the upper deck- I'm referring to the South Side as I couldn't see the North. The 2 end sections were half full but there are only 1,000 seats in each section of the South Upper. So I'd say there were roughly 1500- 2000 seats in the South Upper empty. In the lower bowl, it was probably 98% capacity and the hill was pretty packed which is not included in the official stadium capacity. The only thing I couldn't see was the North Upper but I imagine that was more full than the South as the South has the visitor section and the North has more season ticket holders.

If you saw a bunch of empty seats it was probably later when half the stadium was underneath the stands watching at the concession stand TVs due to the heat.

Thank you to a Tiger Fan
