Clemson, SC -  Pi Alpha Chapter and Pi Alpha Alumni meet before the first game, the LSU / Clemson Football game on August 30th, with about 25 brothers enjoying the fellowship. Thanks to PANAC Brother Charles Jason Thomas (The Guardians, Spring 2006) and Pi Alpha Chapter President Jakari Wright for planning the event without PANAC funds. 

The tailgate was located in the North Green area in front of Brackett Hall and featured delicious food, including wings, sausage, ribs, and sides, and we enjoyed the football games on the TV set up by local brothers. Thanks to all who pulled the details together, including Brother Thomas, who did the cooking for the event.  A message was sent out to the PANAC email list with 25 RSVPs of $50 per brother.  

Despite the result of the game, it was a great fellowship, and we look forward to more events like this in the future. Our next CBAC tailgate is Homecoming versus Duke on November 1, 2025.
