For South Carolina players, one perk of playing in the Belk Bowl is a Belk shopping spree. Gamecocks players will get 90 minutes to round up $400 of Belk merchandise on the house.
K Parker White revealed to The State’s Andrew Ramspacher that some serious scouting has gone into preparing for the shopping spree.
“I took screenshots of a lot of the stuff,” White said. “So I got my notes down, like the prices of each thing that I kind of want to go in and get since you only get an hour and a half to spend the money.”
White’s girlfriend helped with the prep, and she’ll be rewarded for her efforts.
“I have some plans,” White said. “I’m probably going to get her some Christmas presents. I need some dress shoes and a few things I’m probably going to get. Unfortunately, it’s after Christmas, so I can’t get all the stuff. But I’ve thought about a few things.”
In Ramspacher’s full article, an entertaining read, players such as QB Jake Bentley share their plans, though none have done the prep work of White.
