I deliberately set my wedding on sept 14th back in 2002 which was originally set for the 21st which was Florida week, yes the game of pouring rain and zook blasted us because clausen couldn't get a simple snap off. So for the most of our anniversaries they have been on our off week or a give me game. :rock:

Lived in Hess hall - the zoo! From 90-92, ate at presidential, drank at the Lap, traveled to Gainsville in 95 and sat in the swamp to see our beloved Vols get smoked in a downpour, traveled to see us get beat at UCLA in 94 and 08- had a blast! A stand up opening for jay leno at comedy club in Hermosa beach a few nights before the 08 game asked me what Tennessee people were doing here, I said in front of the crowd- we are here to beat UCLAs Ass! Not good results. Stood and celebrated in the endzone at legion field after be beat Bama in 95, spent alot of money on tickets, cabs and hotel rooms to come back to knoxville from middle TN. And more!!!! GBO!!!!

My husband and I were married in Vegas in October 2009, the weekend before the Alabama game, yes he planned it that way, and he wore an orange tie and I carried orange roses. He bought an orange Hummer with a personalized plate that says "VOLFNJON". His parents adopted a blue tick hound and named it Rocky. I was not a college football fan until I met my husband in 2006 and now definitely could never see myself pulling for anyone else but the Vols. The game day experience in Knoxville at Neyland is so awesome. My husband is from Tennessee and I am from Charlotte and I always tell him "I'm the #1 fan of the man from Tennessee".

Somethings don't need explanation. But if you're looking for proof, I wore the pompom pants to the USCjr game on Halloween a couple years ago.

Idk where you do your shopping but take me with. I'm in Birmingham and I pay 10% sales tax on everything. I've found that it runs generally throughout the state at that rate- even higher in some instances. Alabama has the highest combined sales tax rate in the country.

It's only 8% here.

My 3 year old daughter's first name is Neyland. She was born during the '07 SEC championship game vs. LSU.

My wife and I watched the game while she was in labor. Neyland was born near the end of the 3rd quarter.

The year ND beat us in Knoxville (I think 2004) I threw my phone in the fireplace.

I've been a Big Orange fan since conception! I have a boxer dog named Rocky and he wears a UT collar. A UT flag flies at our house all year long. I have a UT room at our house and there is various UT paraphernalia (no, not THAT type of paraphernalia) around my house outside the UT room. My wallet has a large Power T on it, as does my car. I am wearing UT shorts as I type this.

I was in the Pride of the Southland Band in 1974, Condredge Holloway's senior season. My wife didn't know anything about college football before we met. Now she has plenty of Orange in her part of the closet. My part of the closet is nearly all Orange and NO freakin' red.

Our 15-year-old daughter has been able to pick out UT Orange since she was old enough to talk. She has also been a Big Orange fan since conception.

I know what PMS 151 is.

We live just outside Orlando (behind enemy lines), among the gators, and those who know me know that I am ALL ORANGE!

GBO! :)

I spent $10,000 taking my 4 kids to Disney World just so I could bounce over to Tampa to watch TN play in the Outback Bowl.....
