| I'll be parking in AG campus handicap lot. When I inquired about tailgating there, a rep from UT parking services said " The University of Tennessee is a dry campus." I find that hard to believe that the big donors that pay to park in stadium lots do not tailgate. Do I have to park in a non campus lot to tailgate? Any help would be appreciated. |

| Can anyone tell me if there are any bars near the hotel where I am staying which is the Red Roof Inn on Central ave pike? Is Patrick Sullivan's in Old City still open? How far away are Old City and Market square from my hotel? I plan on post gaming at the strip but want to work my way back closer to home base after a few.
Any help is greatly appreciated. |

Any help is greatly appreciated. | I'd highly recommend Downtown Grill and Brewery. |

| Bar Knox (or whatever it's called now). Wear your helmet and battle rattle. |

| No, seriously, Downtown Grill and Brewery on Gay Street (yes, that's really the name), Barleys in the Old City, and Half Barrel on the Strip are all must do's. I would recommend saving Half Barrel (and anything else on the Strip for that matter) as the nightcap after Tennessee wins. The Strip is usually banging after home games. Have fun.....! |

Any help is greatly appreciated. | Patrick Sullivans is still open. It's a cool chill spot. On Market Square, check out Preservation Pub--they just opened up the rooftop--great place for live music and drinks; also on the Square is Lattitude....great place and make sure you go downstairs once there. |

Any help is greatly appreciated. | Your hotel is far enough north that you're unfortunately going to have to deal with a drive at the end of the evening, so plan accordingly. And keep in mind that Knoxville is a horrible town for catching a cab. Best bet's just to be the drunkest one in your group and let somebody else deal with it. |
