John Shearer: The Tennessee/Kentucky Rivalry Dates Back To 1950 - 11/21/2012 - Chattanoogan.com
My father used to talk about watching Tennessee and Kentucky playing in the snow, but that may have been in Lexington. I feel pretty sure that it has snowed on a game day at Neyland, but when I don't know. I am guessing Kentucky or Vandy game. Somebody will remember.
The funny thing is that Lexvol would have immediately been able to rattle off these dates.That was Lex Luthor's fault. He renamed Lextown, Lexington while Superman was off world realigning the planetary orbits. Something about Darkseid sending a rogue planet through the solar system. This caused a gravitational imbalance that disturbed the orbits. Unfixed, worlds would collide. Anyway, when Lex renamed the city, the clouds cried but since it was so cold the tears froze on the way down, thus the snow.
I just love helping fellow Vols fans with team history.lol:
