Go see a football game in Neyland Stadium.

HOLY COW, they played that song every time a TN player was substituted in the game, I believe. Come to think of it, perhaps they just played it over and over the whole game and it only registered that frequently.

Gitmo should take notes...

And it is inescapable.  I was listening to Prairie Home Companion on Saturday night.  The show was a duet singing contest.  One of the groups sang Rocky Top.  No mention was made of Tennessee or the football game.  I had to laugh that it was a Vol fan joke.

They only time they can really play it is when they sub a player since they aren't making any touchdowns...

When I first moved to Memphis 10 years ago, that was the first thing I noticed about TN. Rocky Top is everywhere. Orange is everywhere!  I am sick of Rocky Top and Orange!

 

 

But I have to hand it to their fans, they are devoted!

I have to hand it to your fans they are fans through the thick and thin in football... basketball not so much. 

 

My office mate is a die hard Vol fan and it's getting pretty rough over here

Well, at least they stay in their assigned seats.  That's worth something right?

Funny comparison of the two pictures.

Whatever we can do to make them feel welcome in the Gator Nation.

On a positive note, at least Rocky Top has words and notes and you mostly have to be a musician to play it.  Play Florida State and it sound like a Garbage man trying to tell his truck driver to stop.
