Clemson football fans across the state of South Carolina now have another way to commemorate the Tigers national title win.

Clemson National Championship license plates went up for sale Tuesday, according to a media release.

“We’re thankful to the South Carolina legislature, Sens. Thomas Alexander and Harvey Peeler and Gov. McMaster for this great acknowledgement of our football team’s achievement,” Director of Athletics Dan Radakovich said.

The plate is available for purchase through the South Carolina Department of Motor Vehicles and costs $70 plus the vehicle’s registration fee every two years, the release says.
