This #SolidOrange celebration is the perfect way to gather with fellow Tigers, build excitement for gameday, and show your Clemson pride before one of the most anticipated matchups of the season. Make plans now to join the Clemson Family as we bring the energy, tradition, and spirit of Tiger Town to Louisiana ahead of the thrilling gridiron showdown between our Clemson Tigers and the LSU Tigers.
This year’s Clemson Family Tailgate is especially historic as Clemson Football makes its first-ever trip to Tiger Stadium, creating a can’t-miss opportunity for fans to be part of a memorable chapter in Clemson history. The event will take place from 2:30 p.m. to 5:30 p.m. at Walk-On’s, located just 0.9 miles from Tiger Stadium, making it an easy gameday walk to the action. Guests will enjoy an unlimited food and drink menu, including traditional Louisiana favorites alongside classic tailgate staples, plus assorted soda products, bottled water, liquor, seltzers, wine and beer, all included with each ticket. We will also have gameday giveaways ready for you, so you can head into Tiger Stadium fully fueled, fully spirited, and dressed in true Clemson style.
