Tennessee (SEC) 2009


College:  Tennessee (SEC)
Year:   2009
Games:   Tennessee 31 South Carolina 13
Rating:  8 out of 10
Cost:  Low
Tickets:   Difficult
Stadium:   Excellent
Description: This is how I feel about this game:

Gunnery Sergeant Hartman: How tall are you private?
Cowboy: Sir, five foot nine, sir!
Gunnery Sergeant Hartman: Five foot nine? I didn't know they stacked shit that high! You tryin' to squeeze an inch in on me somewhere, huh?
Cowboy: Sir, no sir!
Gunnery Sergeant Hartman: Bullshit. It looks to me like the best part of you ran down the crack of your momma's ass and ended up as a brown stain on the mattress! I think you been cheated! Where in the hell are you from anyway, private?
Cowboy: Sir, Texas, sir!
Gunnery Sergeant Hartman: Holy dog shit! Texas? Only steers and queers come from Texas, Private Cowboy. And you don't look much like a steer to me so that kinda narrows it down. Do you suck dicks?
Cowboy: Sir, no sir!
Gunnery Sergeant Hartman: Are you a peter puffer?
Cowboy: Sir, no sir!
Gunnery Sergeant Hartman: I'll bet you're the kinda guy that would fuck a person in the ass and not even have the goddamn common courtesy to give him a reach-around. I'll be watching you.
  
Knoxville is an excellent town, this was a night game on Halloween during Tennessee’s only decent year in recent memory but we got CHEATED……by the weather.  It rained like hell the entire day, so I want to go back once UT is decent and it’s a goddamn nice day out because I think this would be one of the best spots to see a game….especially a BIG game.  I will say this, overall we’ve been very fortunate regarding weather.  Out of 30 plus games this is the only one I can think of where the weather impacted the game in a negative way.  Here’s hoping Butch Jones can right the ship there because you have the potential of a Nashville weekend with a UT game tossed in to sweeten the pot = as good of a weekend one can have in the United States of America.
Misc: Well we saw a game during Lane Kiffin’s one and done Tennessee season.  I heard an awful rendition of “No Rain” on the way to the game down by the river.
Don’t Miss:  The riverfront before the game
If you want to make it part of a bigger trip:  Nashville is three hours away.  Blacksburg is 4 hours east and they always play at least one Thursday night game a year.  The Smokey Mountains are just south of Knoxville.  Three hours from Atlanta.
Avoid:    Shitty weather
Attendees:  Bones, Polychronopolus, Dave
