From the first day the gates opened to Memorial Stadium, prior to warmups, Howard had his team enter through the east side gate where they would run down the hill instead of walking around. It was a tradition that was born out of convenience more than anything else.

At first, there was no carpet for the players to run down. There was no band playing Tiger Rag. There were no fans. It was just the team running down the hill to do warmups. It was not really that special.

However, eventually fans started showing up a little bit earlier each home game and would cheer the Tigers on as they came down the hill. Over the years the crowds grew from a few people to a few hundred.

In the late 1950s, Clemson alum S.C. Jones was driving through Death Valley, California when he stopped his car and picked up a 10-pound rock and put it in his trunk. He carried the rock all the way back to Clemson, where Memorial Stadium had already taken on the moniker Death Valley.
