No Street Party planned, just spoke with someone at UT (not happy)

[PC Jr.]

Better said - call the Athletic Department and respectfully request they host a street “celebration” or what ever soft language makes people bend to your will.

Thought you were trying to incite a riot there for a second.

I wonder if they're concerned from a liability standpoint? The Super Regional street party last year was amazing, but perhaps they're anticipating too many people showing up this year given the obvious scarcity of even Regional tickets. Vol Baseball is immeasurably more popular now than it was twelve months ago, so increased block party interest is a given.

If that's the case, it's a real shame that there isn't a giant indoor facility (with no prior commitments!) a mere six-minute walk from LNS that could accommodate a ton of fans in a climate-controlled environment that boasts a fairly large jumbotron.

If only...

Need to get Danny on it!
@preacherman20 you’re the best connect I got to the inside…

It’s easier to plan and organize for Super Regionals when there is only one game a day and only one visiting team

Eight hours of drinking could get out of hand.

I bet Market Square downtown would love to step in to the gap.

More and cheaper alcohol in a larger space

A huge problem last year was nearby parking being saved for ticket holders.

A everyone-come patty now would be 50,000 people work all the excitement

Market Square
Worlds Fair Concert Lawn
Soccer stadium
Thompson Boling Arena

Edit: 9:30 am till after 2:00 am….I must be a light weight.

White is in Destin. Might be tough to organize away.

Obviously you don’t play golf.

i think we need to put the pressure on them to do something for the fans. They did it last season. And i would imagine there will be 10,000 fans or more show up this weekend for a stadium that seats only 5,000. Not very happy with UT right now as i planned a tailgate for Saturday on the expectations there would be an option available for us fans who cant get into the game. How can we make our voices heard here?

It’s Alabama State!!! They did the street party for the Supers against LSU. Yes there would be fans turn out for it, but it wouldn’t be on the level of what we seen last year with LSU. Now if Notre Damn wins and comes to Knoxville for the Supers, then I would expect something big from the school.

Nah, it was great last year during the Supers.

They’re doing the Pawwwl show live down there tomorrow. Caught part of it today. Plenty of love for the Volz! Football talked was of course Saban vs Jimbo in the octagon, upcoming year they had Bamaand UGA at the top, TAMU pushing the ceiling then UT!!!!
They spoke 9-10 win season out loud. 247 national correspondent?

It's also Saturday and Sunday. There will easily be 10,000 fans around or near campus in an event that only holds 5000. They dropped the ball, big time.

I think they should rent 50 helicopters and people could just hover over the stadium and watch.

Gotta think outside the box people!!



On second thought.........maybe no.

We've pretty much been a lock to host a regional for well over a month.

 

[OldTimer]

I'm pretty confident there will be a block party for the Super Regional if we get there, the schedule is set with times. As it is now, we may play Saturday at noon or at 6:00. Same goes for Sunday.

Don’t forget the big screen on your to do list!

Someone should rent one of those old inflatable movie screens that used to get rented for kid’s birthday party’s
