They are already having to rescue hundreds of people from this hurricane and it hasn’t made land fall yet.
What Dabo and the taters don’t get is even if the storm doesn’t affect their house , SC responders will need to help out NC . These guys are working around the clock to prepare. Roads have been reversed since Tuesday. Nursing facilities evacuated all over the state This takes extra manpower. Now they will have to worry about game day duties for CLEMSON. Smh.
Given a second chance to do the right thing the taters prove why CLEMSONING will always be deserving.
C'mon man, max winds to hit land has been registered at 90mph. Winds are barely hurricane force 75mph as it moves finally on shore. It hasn't even rained in Charleston with winds topping out at 9mph an hour ago.
They have rescued "up to 200 people with 150-200 more needing help due to rain and storm surge". So 400 people rescued, 200k without power is going to shut down the entire bordering state 36hrs later? I guess Atlanta Braves, Falcons, Panthers, Titans, Washington Nationals, etc, etc should not play either.
If this storm was Cat 3,4,5 when it hit land, then I would agree, but it's barely a cat 1. The only need the coastal area has is a few hundred flooded houses and they need lineman to get power back.
But if it takes a whole other state, Clemson fans, National Guard, state troopers from upstate, the Esso club staff, and Dabo to save 150 people that knew Florence was going to hit the NC/SC coast for what seems to be a month now, then by golly let's shut down the state to do it!
Single wide trailers don't even roll over in 75mph winds, as we all know they are always the first structures to get hit by storms, just because storms are so mean they have to pick on the little guys.
