The Day Bubba Ran Down Clemson's Hill With the Team... And Got Away With It

There is a scene in the original Jurassic Park movie where Jeff Goldblum’s character peers out of the Jeep at dinosaurs walking the landscape and he utters the words that have become famous.

“You did it, you crazy son of a (gun), you did it.”

Those words were probably uttered by Bubba Britton’s dad just after the Tigers ran down the Hill against Duke on Homecoming in 1992, when Britton successfully ran down with the team despite being dressed in less than a regulation uniform. It’s a story that needs to be told.

Britton, class of 1997, is currently the Director of Philanthropic Initiatives for the Clemson Alumni Association.
