It is absurd that Clemson still allows this. I’m surprised visiting coaches and ADs do not protest.
I think we have larger issues to worry about than what goes on up there!It's not only absurd, it's very dangerous for fans and players. I'd expect this all-in-rush-to the field after the game's over if it's a small college we're talking about OR if this was 1965, but the Clemmies are NUTS to allow this practice to continue. I think Wofford, PC, and Newberry still do the go-to-the-field thing, but I'm not so sure that Citadel and Furman allow this lawsuit-in-waiting.on their football fields.
It's part of the specialness, from their point of view. It's a tradition up there, going back to at least the 1980s.It is absurd that Clemson still allows this. I’m surprised visiting coaches and ADs do not protest.

It was the thing in the 60s, too. I ran to within a few feet of Bear Bryant after a Bama win up there.It's part of the specialness, from their point of view. It's a tradition up there, going back to at least the 1980s.

That would have been in 1967. I was up there and saw a Ken Stabler-led Bama team beat UPC 13-10 (I believe it was.).It was the thing in the 60s, too. I ran to within a few feet of Bear Bryant after a Bama win up there.
All it take is one deranged individual and a fantastic tradition becomes an unfortunate situation.
That's why I said "at least". It was the 1980s before I ever remember them bragging about it.Article says it goes back to Frank Howard.
It's also a brilliant opportunity for the $100 handshake! I know one old guy who does this every home game.
It’s also an effective way to stop another teams drive at the end of a game, like what happened last year when we had 4 seconds left and we’re moving to score once again only to have one of their idiot fans run on the field and they let the clock run.
