I have twins (Boy and Girl) they just turned 1 and we had a Clemson Football/Cheerleading tailgate birthday party. We lined the backyard like a football field and made field goals out of PVC
pipe in the center of the football field we spray painted a Clemson tiger paw. We used orange hairspray and lined the driveway with clemson tiger paws just like the tiger paws on the highway
in Clemson. We got inflatable tigers and placed them all around the backyard (Oriental Trading) and placed 200 orange and white balloons all over the backyard, the mailbox and the driveway
leading to the backyard. Our menu consisted of foods named after teams of the ACC and our big rivalry University of South Carolina: Carolina Chicken, Maryland Terps Potato Salad, Georgia Tech
baked beans, NC State Rolls, UNC Boiled Peanuts, and UVA black eye Pea Dip.
The twins cakes were in the shape of tiger paws and the main cake was designed just like the Clemson Football Stadium Death Valley. I made the invitations by using white Card stock. I dressed my daughter in her Clemson Cheerleading outfit and my son in his Clemson football jersey I placed them in the back of our Yukon and made it look like they were tailgaiting. I took their picture and placed it on the front of the invitation at the top of the picture I ran orange and white Grosgrain ribbon through below the picture I embossed a tiger paw. The inside said: Where's that Tiger! Where's that Tiger!, Hold that Tiger!, Hold that Tiger!, C-L-E-M-S-O...N Pull out your pom poms Strap on your helments... Join us in the Clemson tailgate fun! Our little cheerleader Grace Miller and our little quaterback Dalton their turning One! Our backyard is the place for football fun with lots of space! Show your team spirit by wearing your college colors to our football affair! The date and time and Forfeits Only. All the children and adults had a ball.
