It was a great atmosphere today in Charlotte for the season opener vs. ECU. Tailgaters were all over uptown Charlotte to see the Gamecocks take the field for the first time in 2011.
Tailgating and Fan Photos:
In our pre-game pageantry photos, check out shots of fans greeting the team at arrival, Sir Big Spur on the field, warm-ups, and the entrance. In a special treat at a neutral site game, both teams got to take the field with their own entrances. ECU came out first to purple smoke and "Purple Haze". Then the Garnet & Black-clad crowd roared for the familiar tunes of "2001" as the Gamecocks rocked back and forth in the tunnel and took the field through the smoke.
The Gamecocks hit the field next week in Athens to take on Georgia in their first SEC game of the season. We'll be there for tailgating photos too so be on the lookout! Go Gamecocks!
