Clemson has banned popular TikTok creator Garrett Fedewa from Memorial Stadium after he was accused of trespassing back in November.
According to On3, Fedwa, who goes by GFed, posted one of his usual videos on TikTok where he walks through an open entrance and around a stadium without permission. He then posts the tour on the app as part of his “Walk-On Challenge.”
Fedewa's tour of Memorial Stadium saw him served with a formal trespassing notice by Clemson, noting in one of his videos that he has been banned from the stadium.
Fedewa said he will not be posting his video of Memorial Stadium, as he doesn't "want to get arrested."
“They simply did what they were instructed to do,” Fedewa said. “We had a productive conversation off camera, and based on the information they gathered they gave me a trespass notice, which I thought was fair enough.”

Fedewa has done previous video of stadiums at South Caroline and Coastal Carolina, noting that he didn't deal with police at either of those stops. He said that after two years of creating his videos, Clemson was the only place where he was stopped by police.
“Given Mr. Fedewa’s recent history of unauthorized entries, his active warrant, and his lack of affiliation with Clemson University, I issued him a trespass notice, barring him from Clemson University campus grounds,” a Clemson PD officer wrote to The State.
Fedewa was apparently honest with the police at Clemson.
“He also told us he regularly enters stadiums after hours without permission while visiting said colleges,” an officer wrote, per The State. “He also indicated he had been in Columbia the day before and had entered Williams-Brice Stadium without permission.”
The State also reported Fedewa had three misdemeanor arrest warrants from Georgia in December 2023 after a previous situation at Sanford Stadium. That came after someone in the UGA athletics department saw one of his videos and said he “unlawfully” accessed it. Georgia then banned him from campus for two years.
