The Cheap Seats is a unique corner of Clemson's Doug Kingsmore Stadium .

It's been there for more than two decades , with fans grilling in front of the fence.

Coach Erik Bakich wanted to get back to the program's rowdy roots.

When the team clinched its first super regional appearance since 2010 , Bakich jumped into the outfield.

The Cheap Seats are now a nonprofit organization that raises funds for a variety of causes.

The group's bus was filled with stereo speakers, and its roof was covered in what became a spiderweb-like tower of scaffolding.

Clemson officials called Edens and his cohorts and told them to calm it down before the game.

"When they won that regional last year , we had debated, do we bring champagne? Or will that jinx it? So when Coach Bakich started climbing up there with us, I said, 'Y'all just shake your beers and spray it like it's champagne!' That's more our style anyway." Yes, it is..
