My best Christmas present!

[madgeyoung]

It was tickets to go see the Lady Vols in Fayetteville,AR in 3 wks. I have loved watching the Lady Vols for 40 yrs. Up until 2018 I always went to the SEC tourney but my health has been the pits and I had to stop. Now it will be just a 2 hr drive so I’m going. My husband died from covid 11 months ago And it has been hard. My daughter knew how much I loved watching them and made my day. I just cried like a baby. I guess just pent up emotions got me.I am going to wear my new shirt Baby blue Lady Vols shirt. I’m from Mississippi but moved to Arkansas 2 yrs ago. But Tennessee has always been my favorite team because of Pat Summitt. I took my daughter to camp there several times when the Meeks were there. Sweet memorie.

I'm so happy for you, Madge! Thank you for sharing your sweet fan story with us. It's never too late to make new, wonderful memories, and so I'm sure you getting to sit in the arena wearing your new Summitt Blue shirt to watch your Tennessee Lady Vols curb stomp Arkansas is going to be a good one!

So happy for you, and also so very sorry for your loss. I hope this Christmas has been one of peace for you. I hope you have the best time at the game and would be great if someone in the program got wind of this post and made sure you got to meet some of the team.
