For those who were there, was Shrout's bomb to Callaway vs South Carolina as absurdly loud as it sounded on TV?



It sounds like every single person in the stadium screams at the top of their lungs when he catches that ball.

Absolutely. It was my sons' first true game in Neyland. We sat in MM, just to the right of the jumbotron. When Callaway broke, I put my hands in the air and began yelling with several others around me, that were seeing the play develope. When Marquez caught the ball, it went totally bonkers in there. Neyland Stadium was alive, electric, and deafening. I would compare the crowd noise, at that moment, to a Nascar race at Bristol Speedway when the green flag drops, except it was >85,000 VOL fans making noise instead of 42 racecars. Both my boys were grinning from ear to ear. It was unforgettable.

I never completely left. Still checked in quite often, just stopped posting.

Almost died back in Oct 2018, because of a 6 week non diagnosis of diverticulitis. I was in and out of the hospital so much, my insurance company sent me a letter "explaining" when to go to the hospital.

My white blood count was 20,000 plus (normal is 4-7 thousand), but for 6 weeks they didn't do anything except put me on the same antibiotics over and over again...until my body just started shutting down. A surgeon finally figured it out. They gutted me like a pig. Took out a large chunk of my intestines and gave me a new butthole in my stomach, with a plastic bag attached. Talk about fun.

Long story short. Finally had a reversal surgery done a few months ago. After several months in the gym and a lot of protein "mixtures?". I'm finally back to kicking azz and taking names health.

Doctor that finally figured out what was wrong told me it was the first time he had ever seen anyone as healthy as me have diverticulitis. Before it was all over, I had lost about 70 lbs. I got down to under 130 lbs and looked like a death camp survivor.

Kentucky fans really are delusional, this quote below is just one of some great ones from a thread titled: Our chances of winning the East next year.
“Most talented roster in school history next year. Georgia has to change offensively or they will have a hard time next year, Florida doesnt scare me. I still think we are better than Tennessee, Missouri, and Vandy. If UK beats Florida in Gainesville next year, the Cats could very well find themselves in Atlanta.”

In case some want a break from the recruiting grind for a minute....

Dammit, my lowest was 118 pounds. We could've toured the country "stickman fighting".
Well, before the whole plastic bag thingy.
