I have a great parking spot but yesterday, even after several had left early, it took forever to get to Neyland Drive to get on the way quickly to home. The cops were not letting andy holt/ joe johnson traffic move but maybe three cars at a time and letting other directions go forever twice before letting us go once and it was backing folks up. I let a guy out in front of me before we got to where Volunteer crosses. They let three cars go and he books it across himself drawing the ire of the cops trying to stop him. Saw them take a pic of his tag but they also gave me the big hand up to stop and yelled to make sure I would. I give money and come to games and support the program and then sit forever because the cops do a piss poor job of directing traffic and then held us up for several cars because they were pissed at that guy and also could probably tell that I wanted to drive over their bikes and flip them off. Then traffic seemed even worse on the interstate though it was probably the same as any other game. Wanted to eat at Connors and then get home and watch some other games. It took almost an hour just to get to Connors. Listen to the Auburn LSU finish on the radio instead of seeing the last few minutes at home.
I am driving back and wondering why am I spending all this time and money and especially to see them play ETSU and UTEP and miss all the others. Going to Auburn as well and it should be a fun trip with my son but knowing going in this year is a tough one but hope we can compete ect like everyone else. But started thinking, even if we were a great team right now would it be worth the money, time, and aggravation of all the crap outside of watching the game. I love the time in Neyland but all the other hassle is starting to creep into my thoughts of how nice it is on the weekends I stay at home and enjoy the games on TV. Geared up for Florida game next week but sometimes really wonder if just going to a couple of big games even if you have to pay a pretty penny for tickets, might make more sense. Sorry for the rant but really not a fan of the traffic flow and how K town police handle things.
