Tailgaiting, Beer....YES! Football Season's Here! Greenville's Paladins Rock!

So what the heck is a Paladin anyway? Wikipedia says a high level official and also a Roman Imperial Guard. Well here they come!! Furman University kicks off it's 2008 season on August 30th!!!!

The purple t-shirts are flying off the rack at Wal-Mart LOL! The beer bellies are waiting in line for the hotdogs and the boys are taking to the field. I love football..everything about it and can't wait for the season! There's a huge rivalry here in Greenville. We dont' have a pro team so we love our college ball. It's always the Clemson Tigers and the USC Gamecocks (don't let me get started on THAT name)

Somehow I think a knight can beat a tiger and a chicken..don't you? 

But here in the Upstate of Sc one team sometimes gets overlooked. A smaller university yes but quality athletics. The Furman Paladins royal purple and white unifoms are definitely prettier than ORANGE and Maroon. So keep your tiger paws and roosters to yourselves and hie thee to Clemson and Colombia. For us here in Travelers Rest, Greenville and Upstate SC we're off to watch the Paladins. Here's the schedule..come join us! And GO PALADINS!!!!!
