I'm sure all of the Clemson fans that still lurk here will appreciate this story. I didn't know my wife went to tigerboard to do this either but what a response she got.

I hope you don't mind me using your Tigerboard to make a personal request... My husband and I are Husker fans and we attended the Gator Bowl. I'd like to first say how impressed I was with Clemson fans. Whether we were walking down the street, eating somewhere, tailgating in the parking lot and even at the game, every single Clemson fan we came into contact with was friendly and polite. We travel to football games frequently and I've never met such classy fans. I hope any of you who attended the game found Husker fans to be the same... okay so on with my request...
We were at the game and my husband ordered a beer. The vendor game him back a $2 bill that had a giant orange tiger paw print stamped on it. The vendor apologized that it was all he had. My husband told him that was fine, that if the Huskers won he'd keep it. If the huskers lost he'd spend it. Flash forward to the next morning, our cab did not show up to take us to the airport. We make frantic calls and finally get a cab only to have 30 minutes until our flight leaves. We rush to the airport, my husband pays the cabby while I am checking our bag with the sky cap. Once we are both done, we realize that neither one of us has any cash to tip the sky cap- only that $2 bill from the game.
My husband doesn't hesitate to hand the bill over and we walk inside. He never said anything but I know he was dissappointed to turn over the bill.
I'm not sure if it's something that is common for your to stamp the paw print on $2 bills, but we thought it was pretty cool.
SO, if there is anyone out there who would be able to mail me a $2 bill with a giant orange Clemson paw on it I would be forever appreciative. If not, we'll always have the story.
I will close with this: as impressed as I was with all of the Clemson fans that I interacted with, you will always have a Husker fan who cheers against Unv of South Carolina. As a Clemson fan told us: any day when USC loses is a good day for Clemson.
We got 4 2 dollar bills in the mail so my wife posted back thanks but that is plenty. All the clemson fans that responded did it with class and were willing to help.
:cheers :cheers
