| Tailgating against cancer group? I hope this is the right place to post this.
Did anyone see them in between the G10 garage and gate 10? I bought a shirt from them and would love to get a few more. They had a friend that was 37 who recently passed away from Cancer. The shirts were really cool and in my office of 22 people three are currently battling cancer and all three we diagnosed in the past 45 days. It has not been a good time but I thought I might be able to get a few shirts for them.
Was hoping someone on here knows them or is one of them.
I searched Volnation, facebook and the web but could not find anything.
Oh and of course GO VOLS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Keep your head up guys our time is coming!

| I am with that group. That was my boyfriend, Stephen Coleman, that passed away just 3 months ago from brain cancer at the age of 37. In honor and remembrance of Stephen, his love for tailgating and brave fight against cancer, some good friends of ours had Tailgating Against Cancer t-shirts made. We are selling them for $25 apiece and all proceeds will be donated in Stephen’s name to the Preston Robert Tisch Brain Cancer Center at Duke. The wonderful team there gave us 2 more years with Stephen and for that we are eternally grateful.
I am so sorry to hear about your coworkers. The t-shirts would be a great gift and supports a terrific cause. Just let me know how many and what sizes. Thank you for your contribution! Tailgating Against Cancer pictures by Reeserok - Photobucket |

| Thank you. No problem. We appreciate you supporting our cause. Just let me know what sizes you need and I'll email you my number. You can pick them up at the tailgate next week, at Anderson Lumber Company in Maryville, The Sushi Spot in Powell or I work in Knoxville and can meet you somewhere. Whatever works best for you. |

| Sweet, I think the shirts run kind of small, right? If so I will need a 1 large right now and I will see if I can get the other sizes. I can go by the Sushi Spot on my way home if they have larges there I can just do that to save you some time.
Thanks!

I love the shirts and reading the text caused a lump in my throat. As someone who lost my Mom to cancer, this is so reassuring and true. I would love a shirt as well. Are you going to be at the SC game? |
