3. Tiger Walk

Tiger Walk has become a pregame tradition unlike any other where Clemson football fans gather down the street outside the West End Zone and cheer on the Tigers as they make their entrance into Death Valley.

Unfortunately, it’s one of those events where policing of people would be extremely difficult. In addition, the Tigers are going to likely want to limit crowd contact with players and coaches.

Instead of Tiger Walk, we very well could see a situation where the buses drop players off right beside the stadium and fans are kept to a limit as a way to promote the safety of players and the coaching staff.
