Description
Some of the lyrics of the Bob Seger song "Turn the Page" could be written about the life of a mascot: "You feel the eyes upon you...Most times you can't hear 'em talk...Every ounce of energy you try to give away...There I am, up on the stage..."As you turn the pages of this book, you will read stories about some of the experiences of the students who have portrayed the Clemson University mascots, The Tiger and the Tiger Cub*. We hope they will become a history lesson for all who love Clemson, and that they will last forever as readers pass them along at a family gathering, a tailgate, on a sports talk show orwith a weekly lunch group.The question remains the same and the answer never changes: "Is it hot in there?" Anyone who played the role of the Clemson Tiger or Tiger Cub has been asked this question over and over. Every Clemson fan has probably had a picture or interaction with one of the mascots over the past 65 years.
