Whatcha got?
Simply just being a 17 year old kid at the '98 game at home and beating the crap out of the Cats. If I'm not mistaken, we were -11, and ended up winning by 35 or something crazy like that. Couch couldn't stay off the grass, and we absolutely dominated them defensively.

2007 Overtime game in Lexington. Me and a friend went to the game and sit in the upper deck with no other TN fans in sight. There was a group of folks in front of us that brought in a whole bottle of bourbon in their pants leg. They drank and dog cussed us the whole time. Each time it looked like KY was going to win the game they said "WERE GOING TO THE FIELD" and would head down that way. Each overtime they would climb their butts back up into there seats. We eventually won and that place was quiet as a mouse as we made our way out.

1985, the Vols had to beat Ole MIss, @UK, and Vandy at home to win the SEC and go to the Sugar Bowl. After beating Ole Miss, they had to win in Lexington and everyone knew the Vandy game was a given. At the half, the Vols were only up 6-0 and it was a struggle. Early in the 3rd quarter, Daryl DIckey ducked under a blitz and threw deep to McGee. The pass was way underthrown but McGee came back and caught it around the 10, juked the two lost UK defenders and dove into the endzone. After the 2 pt conversion, Vols knew they were going to New Orleans. Went onto beat UK 42-0 and Vandy 30-0 the next week.

I have to sayvthe 2015 52-21 game. My wife and I had always wanted to go to an away at Kentucky. My cousin is banker up there and with his connections we got sweet seats and a great parking pass right beside the stadium and near where they do there "Catwalk." We tailgated with my cousin there and I even got to chat with a former letterman from the 80's. Their fans were very friendly( unlike Georgia fans.)

At the game we were surrounded by Cats fan but they were again very friendly and we were not hassled any during. Probably the best away game experience we've had.

I am the guy in the orange hoodie on the far right with his arms raised, my wife is still sitting just to my right.

Multi overtime win to send the Vols to SEC championship due to tiebreaker in 3 way tie with uga and Uf, in fulmers last year.

Last year was pretty enjoyable as well. First all black “dark mode”, new light system in Neyland revealed, uk “first round qb” held to sub 100 and 3 picks, stomped their arses.

Hopefully Dee Williams gets a chance to do what Cam Sutton did at Lexington back in 2015.
