The Pigskin Prophet isn’t immune to the fact that people need help during the holidays, and because I live close to the mudhole called Columbia, an area charity that is near and dear to my heart reached out to ask if I was busy last Saturday. I was, but when charity calls, you answer.
They asked if I would man a Salvation Army-style bucket outside of Williams-Brice Stadium before, during, and after the Gamecocks’ home game against Appalachian St.
Now, I’ve been around their program enough to know that prime leaving time for Gamecock fans is at halftime and third quarter, and there were a number of fans that did indeed leave during halftime.
