The Clemson Tigers own college football’s greatest entrance when they sprint down The Hill after rubbing Howard’s Rock. It’s been dubbed the, “Most exciting 25 seconds in college football,” and if you’ve seen it, let alone in person, you’d be obliged to agree.

Being one of the most dominant programs in the last few years helps a tailgate, also. After capping off an undefeated season in 2018, the Tigers ran the table in the postseason to finish 15-0 – the first team to do so in the College Football Playoff era.

The tailgating doesn’t stop when the games start, though, as Clemson continues to allow pass-outs which grant fans an opportunity to leave and re-enter Memorial Stadium. They’re subject to security screenings, but that’s the price you have to pay.

The Tigers host Georgia Tech, Texas A&M, Charlotte, Florida State, Boston College, Wofford and Wake Forest in 2019. Another undefeated home trek could place Clemson atop the ACC.
