Will we play Dixieland Delight when we beat 'Bama at Neyland?

[UT_Vols16]

 

[HuntlandVolinColo]

I was thinking we could play My Way by Elvis or Sinatra for Saban/bama dynasty.... "And now the end is near and so I face the final curtain" ....

 

[The Original Fade]

Will any of us still be alive next time we beat Bama?

Since all of us here clearly have already been born, then no

 

[dduncan4163]

Wait. That's EXACTLY why I want to do it.

Am I a bad person??

The song is set in TN anyway.

They've turned the song crude and say "F Auburn" at the end of every line during it at the Iron Bowl. I think it's all in good fun.

I don't think I really have any respect for any other team's tradition in the sense that I would say "Oh I wouldn't touch that...it's "sacred""

Only a Gump would poison trees. What point he was trying to prove I'll never know. To top it off he was a retired state trooper.

 

[wmcovol]

Good grief.

 

[overseasorange2]

I hope not. He is signed through the 2030 season.

So you want him to stick around?

 

[Woodlawn VOL]

Play Tennessee River and the Mountain man!!! And of course a ton of Rocky Top!!!! Then hit the streets to hear it all. I am a lover of almost all types of music, don’t really get into super head banging rock and hard core rap. Other than that I love most all. I even appreciate opera and classical, they aren’t my favorite but I can get into classical at times and I would like to say I went to one opera before I die. I love country,rock,rythmn and blues, pop and soul. I am a music fan!GBO!

 

[LadyVolette]

Saban most assuredly is a dinosaur.

IKR.. I don’t get it.. you’re the greatest and the richest… blah, blah, blah.. go out on a high note and enjoy your free time and money, nobody lives forever

 

[Behr]

 

[Unconditional Surrender]

Nah, just have folks standing on every overpass on I-75 from Knoxville to Chattanooga waving big ole Power T flags and holding up giant signs with the final score wishing the Bama faithful a nice trip home

They’ve killed for less

 

[SycloneJoe]

Nothing but RockyTop!

Right after Down The Field is played because we just scored another touchdown!

 

[vols 30]

For PC purposes, can we just play delight, and then go to Dolly's Stampede

 

[VolBallGuy]

Bama dynasty puttering out and ours is getting going. Good things are coming. So…. How bout we jus replay Rocky Top when we beat them 15 times in a row?

 

[Jaws]

Yes, play it while everyone is storming the field.

 

[OffTackleVol]

rammer jammer itself is classless and disrespectful. I wouldnt wanna play it back to them even though they deserve it

Yea, the Turds like to talk about Bama "class." Rammer Jammer is without, no doubt the most disrespectful, classless, unsportsmanlike "thing" in college football. Yet, during pre-game festivities, our Pride actually plays the opponent's fight song while pausing in front of their cheering section. That and "playing to The Hill" during their march into the stadium are two of my favorite UT traditions.

 

[savannahfan]

Seems so, but in the 1990s. Peyton & friends had the Bammers under their thumbs.

And he and most of the Bama guys that played pro ball have now retired from football!!!

[sunnyvol79]

We beating Bama????? Some of y’all need to lay off the drugs

 

[CINCYVOL]

Soon! But Saban will be gone!!!

We will beat Saban his last year as head coach, just like Bear. Hopefully we beat ‘em before then as well.

 

[orangetitanfan]

I hope not - that's another teams' tradition and us playing their song / mocking their tradition is just disrespectful.
Now lighting up the cigars, count me in as that is a tradition shared by both teams.

That song is about Tennessee, I think it would be great.

 

[LadyVolette]

Yes, play it while everyone is storming the field.

Don’t give us ideas

 

[OrangeBeachVol]

you do know OP that the group Alabama did that song which is the reason Bama fans sing it.

 

[Jaws]

Alabama has other songs, actually about the state of Alabama.

If you want to see cognitive dissonance play out before your very eyes, watch as Alabama fans attempt to breakdown the lyrics:

Is 'Dixieland Delight' a song about Tennessee or Alabama?.

I used to know Teddy Gentry a little. His son went to Auburn. I asked him how that happened and he said “well, you know? You try and raise him right then he goes and does somethin’ like that…”
