Damn, I gotta admit… that is class free.
You always see this kind of crap on both sides. I fail to see the reason that you’d wear Clemson gear to a USC event or vice versa.
True story:
My wife and I both graduated from Clemson, but my wife’s PhD is from USC. So this summer we took a trip from Idaho to SC to spend time with her parents on Wateree. She wanted to go and visit with some of the folks she worked with while at USC. I managed to somehow hide my enthusiasm, but quickly suggested that while she was visiting on campus, that I’d take our daughter to Riverbanks Zoo. Problem solved.
So the day of the visit, I’m wearing my usual summer outfit… Kaki shorts and a Clemson golf shirt that had the usual tiger paw on the left chest, but also had Clemson Tigers on the arm band. Bright orange of course. My daughter and I have a blast at the Zoo. She loved the ropes course attraction which is new since we left in 2011. We are headed back into downtown when my wife calls and says that she wants to hit happy hour with some of her folks and why don’t we join them at Tio’s (spelling maybe?). For those of you that don’t know, Tio’s is just across the road from the horseshoe on Sumter Street. I actually went by a dollar store and bought a plain blue T-shirt to replace my Clemson shirt. Not b/c I was worried about getting my ass kicked, but because it’s just a plain old dick move to wear one on campus.
