Not sure if its the same sort of thing but SC and Clemson originally only played in Columbia for the first chunk of the series.
It had to do with just attracting fans. It was before football was big of course and it coincided with the state fair so to get people to go to the SC-CU game it would be played at the same time as the state fair, in Columbia, and Williams-Brice and the fairgrounds are neighbors to this day for that reason.
