Go Big Orange!

Last weekend Paul and I joined his parents in Knoxville for the UT vs. Mississippi State football game. I love going to these games....brings back fond memories of Washington State football when I was younger. A not so great team, bundling up for a cold night, band music, and losing your voice from cheering. Here are a few snapshots from the weekend....and random thoughts from me (Alison).

Off to the game - UT's Biggest Fans!!




Getting excited for my favorite part....the marching band!!
(Yes, Dad I am wearing a Tennessee T shirt. You know what they say, "when in Rome")






Look at this handsome fan

Only in the South would you see the name "Jesus" in a football stadium.















For all the flack UT gets about the poor talent and coaching,
there is no denying the talent of their marching band.














Go Vols! Not the rodent....the Volunteers.
The famous "Power" T!



























Someone is getting cold....

Two questions....Will UT ever score?
And why does the girl sitting next to me keep kicking me?















Mayday. Mayday. We have some very unhappy fans here...













They are so serious about their football...hehehe!












Maybe an Orange M& M will bring good luck....










Down the hatch....
Doot-da-do-da-do....my ring looks pretty in this lighting...have they scored yet?!
So do theirs....



Another bad call and Paul is trying not to curse....laughing because I am egging him on.
Could it be...is it true....











TOUCHDOWN!!!!!












Happy Fans!!!


I like it when UT is winning!

I just spotted a celebrity sitting behind us....I can't believe who is here....














The Great Pumpkin is a UT fan too!!


We won!!
