I am a Memphis girl taught to "dislike" the color orange and bleed Tiger blue.
As a kid, Don had an orange bedroom with UT wallpaper and orange curtains. Does that tell you anything?
I experienced Neyland Stadium a couple of times but only as a Tiger fan. Unfortunately, that never ended well. Ha!
Don grew up going to Knoxville and has shared countless memories of going to games with his Dad. Can't help but love that:)
About six years ago when we were just dating, I attended my first UT game as a Vol fan. Gasp!
This past weekend we went back and I have to admit, I was pretty excited myself. We went with our friends Leigh and Cole and had a blast!
Don was SO excited all week leading up to the game. Let's just say he was in his element and took full advantage of all of the fun to be had:)
In case you were wondering if we don't get to watch enough football, PLEASE don't worry. We still have a Titans game and an Arkansas State game in our future.
Thankfully, there is a light at the end of our never ending football tunnel. Two more weeks of JCM ball is all that is left:)
I think football in the south is just a big thing and there will never be too much of it. We used to live in Nashville and went to a Titans game and its definitely an experience but a fun one.
