Cant say I can top the national championship game since I have only been to two games in my life and they were last year.haha.
But they were the most fun i have ever had at a sporting even in my life. The georgia game which sadly we lost and then the south carolina game which we won. Both awesome games.

It was an exciting game against a pretty bad Bama team.

Yeah, I watched it online the other day. We dug ourselves a 3 turnover hole early and had to overcome that to get to OT. The fg block at end of regulation by Mondre Dickerson saved a bad loss, sending it to OT.

I forgot how awesome that game was. Worn out when it was over.

1987(?) Auburn game where Johnny played for the tie. TD in last minute to spare the loss. Place was crazy.

Favorite part was I went with a smoking hot date from UTC. Married her 3 years later / 24 years ago. Talk @ a hail Mary!

'98 FLA. I went from section EE to the field in about 10 seconds...

Also the '98 Arkansas game-after "the fumble"-the only time I've literally been speechless.

And '03 FLA in Gainesville. Just nice to see them beat UF, especially in the road.

Peyton's last home game. It was my wife's first game to see at Neyland and we watched the second half with my granddad who came down from ushering the upper deck.

I just remember the rain. Afterwards I learned about the illegal cleats UT was wearing.

Hey, little buddy. Step out from underneath that cloud. There are plenty of things to feel bad about without using somebody else's good Vol memories to do it.

The first night game when My VOLs beat Pen State 28-21. I guess it being the first night game was significant plus it was Penn State.

Best game "experience" for me is probably a tie, both games against SC.

2009, on Halloween, the black jerseys, band playing Thriller, the rain. So fun!

Then 2013. Nobody wanted to leave. There were tons of fans still in the stadium after the team left the field.

Arkansas game 1998...one of the strangest plays ever by Arkansas quarterback- at the near end of game when he fumbled.. big portion of fans had already left when Martin and Tennessee failed to convert on 4th down attempt..

2003 5ot game in Tuscaloosa. We stayed in the stadium singing Rocky Top until every Bammer was gone.

Then we (the 2000 or so Vol fans still in the stadium) all sang" We just beat the hell outta you!" to the defeated Bammers as they walked with their heads down.

THEN we all left as a huge group singing Rocky Top over and over as we walked down the exit ramps of the stadium.

THEN we all cracked open our coolers and had the longest post-game tailgate party ever.

It was something I'll never forget and an experience that will never be matched. If you were there then you know. If you weren't there you just have to try your best to imagine it.

I was at 98 and 04 FL, 98 Arky, 06 Cal,and the 5 (or 6, can't remember) OT Arky game (03 maybe?) But 03 at Tuscaloosa 5OT game was the most magical

I was there in Tuscaloosa. Ton of hero's that day but the one I'll always remember is Casey. He didn't play perfect but he came up with big play after big play everytime when all seemed lost.

The 95 game will always be the #1 game in my heart tho. If Joey would've ran straight up into the stands on that first play he'd ran right between me and my best friend. Think we we're the only two Orange clad fellers in that crimson nuckle dragging section. Pert near had the whole thing to ourselves about midway thru the 4th.

98 season tickets south 40 yd line w backs against the pressbox. Took my 6 yr old little girl to the Razorbacks game on a daddy/daughter "mostestest fun time we've ever had daddy, right daddy"! most fun time I've ever had at a ball game. Shakers, Smokey plushey,new hats, junk food out our ears, singing Rocky Top as loud as we could. Her ear peircing squeal ....

By the way, we won...:)

2004 Florida Game. Wilhoit's 51 yard field goal for the win after missing a game tying extra point the drive earlier. Played in front of the biggest crowd in the history of Neyland Stadium (109.5k). Brought my buddy, who went to Tennessee Tech and had never been to Knoxville or cared about the Big Orange before that game. By the end of the night he was hoarse from singing Rocky Top. I think I hugged about a dozen strangers when that kick went through. Best sporting experience of my life.

95 Bama game and by middle 3rd quarter it was hard to find a Bama fan left.
98 Florida game.
National Championship game against FSU. It was so much orange at the game it made you think it was a home game. 5 buddies and I rented a rv and went to game. We had a blast. Two of my friends are no longer with us but that is one memory I will always have with them!

The 2009 USC game on Halloween was cool. Halloween games at night are great.

If you were actually there, you would know what I mean about the rain. It was just a steady rain all afternoon. Thank goodness they sold beer in the stadium and the temp wasn't cold.

Had many great experiences but one of favorites was 1982 AL game!

My freshman year at Reese, the anticipation all week, and then a great victory! :rock:

Must have been 20,000+ on the strip after the game, which the cops finally had to block off!! What a night!

Oh to be that young again! :cray::cray:

I want the UF players to have fear in their eyes before they come out of the tunnel at Neyland. I want them to hear the crowd roar and feel the ground beneath them shake. Is this a realistic possibility?

Certainly it is. They will be coming off an open week but prior to that they travel to Bama. That will most likely be a beatdown. Their psychie could be a little shaken when they come to Knoxville.
