We are a group of school teachers (4 teachers and 3 kids) from Kentucky that live/love Tennessee football and basketball
. We made these investments (parking pass/Orangeulance) because it allows us to spend time doing something (Tailgating/games) we love while having our kids come along and be a part of it.
Go to pictures from here if you want to miss the cool story bro part.
My passion for Tennessee Football started over 25 years ago when my brother enrolled into the University of Tennessee. Being 15 years older than me I would come down occasionally or travel with my parents and we would take in football/basketball games. I fell in love ..
As I entered my high school and college years I rarely missed a game at Neyland and traveled to more than a few away games ..
I met the love of my life and we now have two beautiful kids (2 and 7). As my parents/brother did I am raising them to love the Big Orange! We started taking them to games years ago, but over the last few years we have started letting them enjoy the tailgating atmosphere, Pre-game festivities, etc. One of my good buddies, his wife and their 9 year old daughter joined in as well
We went all out on tailgating last year. Purchasing a nice parking passToting all the needed supplies in the back and on top of our suburban(Tents, grill, TV, coolers, etc) We would set up Fort around 6:00 AM each morning (Girls/Kids would sleep in and grab a taxi) and stay thru late evening/night watching other games, playing tailgate games, throwing football. The only issues we encountered were weather (Vandy game was freezing!) and then the late night struggle to get all our gear back into the suburban. We had items strapped on the top and back with the kids sitting on chairs and tents .
That brings me to the GO BIG ORANGEULANCE!! I searched for over 4 months for the perfect tailgate rigI looked at trailers, buses, R-Tec vehiclesYou name it and I considered it.
Thats when I came across a few ambulance conversions. It allows for storage, travel and a room to escape the weather . So here she is in all her glory!!! Let me know what you think.
Cant wait to get her started this Sunday!
GBO! GO VOLS!
