[youcancallmeAl]

I live in an Atlanta suburb and paid $4.19/gallon yesterday. A few weeks ago it was 50 cents a gallon more. haha, I think they just make up a price. Costco was 3.95, but had a hugeeeee line.

paid 4.99 today in Maryland, most ever. had been 4.49 a few weeks ago. It's getting worse.

That was then, this is now.

I was a little surprised that Georgia Tech has the lead in this series as I do not think of Georgia Tech as a baseball school.

How long have you thought of Tennessee as a beisbol school?

 

[87&91ALUM]

Don't know about y'all but, I am ready for some more Vol baseball. I do not care about the records. This Vol Team is amazing and they have played their hearts out. We are good. Accomplished so much.

Since the 70's when Phil Garner and Condredge Holloway played.

BaseVols wrecked tech 2-0 in 2005 super regionals.... as part of the only undefeated perfect super regional record ( BaseVols 6 wins opponents nada) in NCAA D1 history (minimum 5.5 games). Somebody check my math.

I think Phil played in the 60s

edit @Volfan1000 is correct, Scrap Iron played (very well and was an AA) in 1970. My sincere apologies!

Garner, Phil « Tennessee Sports Hall of Fame

During his career with the Volunteers, Phil was a two-time All-Southeastern Conference selection, the 1969 NCAA home run champion and a 1970 All-American.

You’re as much a glutton for punishment as I am! There have been some thin years back through there. Can’t say I’ve ever considered them a baseball school though. Actually dated a girl that lived across the street from Garner here in Houston…years ago.

 

[VolPack22]

There’s technology out there now (it’s been discussed here before; IIRC a Big 12 team is using it, maybe TCU football?) that tracks the electronic tickets getting transferred. That athletic department said they were going to crack down on those who did a lot of transferring tickets.

I’m happy they are cracking down on it.

Thanks, sunshine.

Hopefully Tennessee will soon. They’re aware of the technology.

I appreciate your unique (skin in the game) perspective! upostilike

That would be sweet.

That’s not how it works.
Come alone, meet me in the ally and bring cash.

So we’re meeting behind the football forum?
GBO!!

It’s hard sell for UT to persuade season ticket holders to pass along their tickets on one hand and potentially punish people who do it “too much “.

I wonder how many seats were corporately purchased and passed along to customers and such?

We only have 4 seasons of 50+ wins. TV has 2 of those seasons.

 

[Aerie Vol]

Holy freak did I have a nightmare last night. Game 1 vs bama st. Bottom 9. They had 2, we didn't.

Think Mighty Casey rather than Bat Flip King.

Was glad I woke up.

I think I need a therapist.

4 tix next to mine are Corp owned and often empty even for SEC games.

Good point. You want to encourage folks to transfer Tix so they don’t sit empty, but you don’t want folks to buy season Tix who have NO intention of attending games. In other words, if they’re buying to resell, they shouldn’t be allowed to renew. Obviously, just my humble opinion but a stance that would keep a hornets nest environment at LNS vs a corporate “wine and cheese” crowd who show up late and leave early.
