The first time Clemson played in the Atlantic Coast Conference Championship Game at Charlotte’s Bank of America Stadium in 2011, the game was sold out. A ticket was hard to find that night as the Tigers beat Virginia Tech to win their first conference title in 20 years.
The same thing happened when the Tigers returned to the title game in 2015. Clemson fans flocked to Charlotte and did not leave any tickets available for the North Carolina fans as the Tigers won their second ACC Championship under head coach Dabo Swinney.
Clemson fans did the same thing last year, coming within a few 100 people of breaking the 2015 ACC Championship Game attendance record of 74,514 as they downed Miami for a third straight league title.
