Clemson’s new football facility looks amazing
The Clemson football program has separated itself on the field, and now it’s getting a facility on-campus to match the success the team is having.
Clemson’s $55 million facility is set to open on Feb. 1, and being inside it looks more like you’re going to a theme park than an athletic center.
CBS Sports’ Jon Solomon shared some photos on Twitter of the facility Monday, and it’s nothing short of amazing. The facility will feature an indoor slide, movie theater, mini golf course, bowling alley, barber shop, and much more. Take a look at the pictures:

The entire facility is 140,000 square feet and also will have a laser tag area, according to an August story from The State.
“We are very excited and appreciative about this new day-to-day home of our program,” Swinney said in a release about the facility. “This complex will be one of the best in the nation and will allow us to continue our pursuit to be among the best programs in the country. We look forward to it being the home of Clemson football for a very long time.”
