VOLS in other cities besides Knoxville

[BruisedOrange]

I live in Chatt. we are a melting pot for the SEC. TN, GA, Ala, FL, and AU. Also see SC and LSU but not as much.

Which is why the (now Times-)Free Press has always had one of the better sports pages in the nation. They cover all the South's teams with appropriate passion and interest. In the fall, from any church choir loft in Chattanooga, you can see who's a fan of who from the ladies' sweaters and the mens' ties.

As for Vol fans, I've seen more orange being worn daily than in any other year since we moved here in 2005. I've also seen more strangers starting conversations based on just that.

I'm not concerned about Alabama's sales status. Once a team is established as a winner, wearing their brand attracts lots of casual buyers for the same reasons as names like Polo, The North Face, or Calvin Klein.

Plus, that swirly script A has a decidedly more feminine fashion appeal than the Power-T.

I mean, if I was female or gay (not that there's anything wrong with being a Bama fan), I'd definitely prefer to have that swishy, ruby-red A adorning my purse. :air_kiss:

Appreciate what you did with JTF-FA, JC. Bet you're very proud of that tour.

Yeah JP. Pretty happy with how things turned out and proud to have served with all the great men and women I did over the years. I was there fairly early when things ramped up in the 90's - very proud of the young warriors on my team as well....thankless job in many aspects unless we were able to bring closure to the families after many years.

Columbus, MS... Surrounded by west teams who want to try to make us out to be inferior, better continue while thy can. Patches of orange are few and far between around me, but being on here daily makes me feel surrounded by others who bleed orange as well. Go Big Orange. #VFL
