Dabo Swinney spent Friday night sledding with Clemson players and almost hitting a guard rail

Memorial Stadium is a GREAT place to sled. Lots of contained snow, great Death Valley hills -- it’s perfect. Dabo Swinney mixed it up with his players on Friday night and decided to hit the slopes on a sled and things could have gone very wrong.

Kudos to Clemson for having a spotter near that GIANT METAL GUARD RAIL, because this could have been bad.

Everything went fine. Fun was had by all and nobody ran face-first into metal. Remember: Any sled run you can walk away from is a good sled run.
