For the first time in my 60 some years as a Vol fan, my school has officially asked for our home fans to wear our primary color to a game.
OUR first ever school called for ORANGEOUT.
Some of you may find that odd since most Vol fans wear Orange to games anyway.
But a good portion do not.
some prefer white, gray, black, or lady Vol Columbia blue with an orange T on it somewhere.
Some (a very small portion) just don’t like Orange (but won’t say that out loud).
Some (a slightly bigger portion) think it’s such a bright color that it makes them look fatter than something darker does. (Yes, this is a thing. I have two very large family members who don’t wear bright colors ever. One is female and one is male and both top 300 pounds).
Anyway, I thought I’d ask here how successful you think the ORANGEOUT will be.

So, the question is this:
(Not including Tide fans, what percentage of Vols at Neyland will wear orange?)

Everyone paying $400+ for a ticket is highly tuned into this game. I don't see many people not wearing orange.

I hope so.
I want the overhead camera shots to capture a Sea of Orange with just a few pockets of crimson.
Heres hoping that there will be less than 10,000 Bama fans there unlike the 20,000 or so that they normally seem to have when we play them in Neyland.
I have no idea how many tickets that UT sent to Bamas ticket office before the start of the season. Anybody know?

I’m guessing less than 5k Bama fans

I don't understand not wearing orange (unless you wear primarily white with orange, ala checker Neyland). The ones who kill me are the ones who wear black or dark grey against Vandy or Missouri.

As I stated in the OP, there are overweight people who only wear darker colors because they think they don’t look as big then as they do in brighter colors.
That is much more important to them than whether they are wearing an opponent’s colors.
