Is there any way to petition Bojangles corporation to make one exception and eradicate all orange paint at this particular location, replacing it with garnet and black paint? There is absolutely NO place for permanent orange anywhere near Williams Brice and I'm personally sick of looking at it.

I kinda agree . Even if USC pays for it. I think it would be nice. I also wish USC would help pay for some of the local businesses out there to upgrade their fences so it would uniformed down bluff rd up to the stadium

At one time, I would have cared. But I'm over Clemson. They no longer matter. Next year, they can all go to Bojangles to try to find solace in fried chicken and biscuits after getting a fifth straight butt whipping from the Gamecocks.

Go to change.org and start the petition. Judging by the number of upvotes you've received people will sign it. You can set it up to email their corporate offices each time someone signs it. You may want to include something about landscaping so that it fits in with the FM.
FWIW USC has enough to worry about that it can't really help the local businesses clean up. It would be nice to see the city start an urban renewal project in the area to help out. USC athletics brings millions to Cola and the areas around our facilities often become the "face" of the city for the hundreds of thousands that visit for games, camps, etc.

There's actually a precedent for this in college towns.
The Home Depot in College Station, TX has ZERO orange on it...they changed their sign and aprons to maroon because the Aggies wouldn't allow orange (especially a burnt orange very similar to UT) in their town. I've seen it myself. Pretty cool.

East Carolina U has a lot of this too. Lots of national/regional chains with purple and gold. I always thought it to be pretty cool.

Unfortunately, no. 1994 Citadel graduate. Army wouldn't take me with my hearing loss due to severe cutbacks. Heck, I even offered to change the MOS to Artillery. Still said no thanks. My biggest regret.

On this same subject, I've always felt that Clemson road should be renamed. We could call it "who gives a crap" road.

The only road in Columbia that should be named clemson road should be a dirt road going to nowhere.
Obviously, a clemson fan had something to do with that.
I'll never live on clemson road. Give me a house there, and I'll sell it.

There's a legitimate reason for Clemson Road, going way back. It led to the Midlands Experimental Station of the Clemson Agricultural Extension Service (a very valuable resource for farmers and even backyard gardeners like myself).

The Bi-Lo in Clempson is orange instead of maroon. The BB&T on 123 in cowtown as well.
I concur.

Will be gone in near future,Jerry Richardson is on the board of Bojangles and he owns 40 franchises,{not this one} but he has told board to buy out franchisee at old market.

Also the What-A-Burger in College Station is maroon and white.
I like the idea of a garnet & black Bojangles, FWIW. As esteemed scholar Lloyd Christmas once noted, "you just show me where to sign."

I'm not understanding what you're saying. We don't need Clemson to know how to grow maters.
