What we know about Memorial Stadium (Clemson, SC)

Getting in from the airport

Tailgating

Checked at the source
Parking lots open at 6 AM for kickoffs before 3:30 PM and 8 AM for later kickoffs. Most campus lots are IPTAY donor lots, assigned by giving level. The Stacks, a premium REVELxp tailgate area on Service Drive, sells single-game packages and hosts the free Fan Fest with live music, opening hours before kickoff. Clemson's own set-up tailgate, sold by the season or by the game; it can sell out for big games. Tiger Band plays a concert at the Amphitheater 90 minutes before kickoff, then parades to the stadium down Fort Hill Street. Volunteers hand out green bags at tailgates. Fill one with bottles, cans and glass and leave it at your spot.

Touring the stadium

Checked at the source
The team's Tiger Walk into the stadium starts in the Rogers Family Lot (Lot 5) 2 hours and 5 minutes before kickoff. Players rub Howard's Rock, on its pedestal at the top of the Hill since 1966, before running down into the stadium. Be in your seat for it.

After the final whistle

Checked at the source
Clemson posts a postgame traffic plan for each game. Seneca Creek Meadows shuttles run until 2 hours after the game.

One thing to avoid

From a specialist guide
Don't bring a backpack, umbrella or cooler: Memorial Stadium bans them, and every entrance has walk-through metal detectors.
