[QUOTE="Supersizethatorder-mutt, post: 245365, member: 435"] I am 72 years old, and I would be willing to bet that I am as loud and rowdy as any fan in his or her twenties. And I have been going to Tech games for nearly 50 years and have worn a gold or yellow shirt and cap to every game except the white-out games. So don't tell me that older fans can't get excited too. I am not married, so I can't really relate to the fact that your wife won't wear gold. But ask her this one day: if y'all were Clemson fans, would she wear that ugly orange that their fans wear? If she didn't she would be in a VERY SMALL MINORITY, because both male and female Clemson fans proudly wear that color, no matter what they might think it looks like on them. I can't argue with your wife, but fans who say they don't like wearing gold, or it doesn't look good on them just don't get the point. It's about showing your support by wearing the school colors, no matter what they are or what they look like; it's not a fashion show. When the Irish newspaper article on the game referred to the "wall of gold," in describing our fans in Dublin after the winning TD, I just wanted to shout, "HELL, YEAH !!!" There was a lot more gold in the stands Saturday than I ever remember seeing in the past, and, contrary to what some have said, it DID stand out. I hope the whole stadium is decked out in gold this Saturday for the Gold Out. What a message that will give to the TV audience !!!
