I'm BIG ORANGE ALL THE WAY! Born and raised in Elizabethton(graduated EHS '66-colors: ORANGE & BLACK!).
Watched many SEC games on TV in the '60's and was a BIG ORANGE FAN from the begining.
My mom grew up in Greeneville and dad was born near Elizabethton.
When I wear my TENNESSEE ORANGE, I'm asked if I'm from Tennessee and of course I say "YES!"

For those of you who are TENNESSEE fans and live or born in other states and get asked the question, don't worry about it. Just tell them you support one of the best colleges/universities in the country. There are lots of Gator, Bulldogs (UGA), Penn State, FSU(Noles), NC (Tar Heels) fans here in northern VA, where most of the fans here are either Terps, Hokies, or Cavaliers.
Where ever you are support your favorite team -college or Pro (Hockey, Baseball, Football). :salute: :good!:

I am a displaced Tennessee resident. I was born in Chatanooga, but moved to Illinois 3 months post-birth. I remember the day I crossed that state line like it was 19 years ago. I came home in a University of Tennessee two-piece outfit. I still have it to this day. God I love my orange. I even convinced my HS robotics team to convert the colors to orange when we had a little coup. It's unfortunate that it ended up orange and blue instead of orange and white. But a tie was fair enough.

Born in Memphis, lived in Tiptonville until I was 5, raised in Henderson (just south of Jackson), educated at UTK, lived in Nashville for a couple of years after college.

I miss Tennessee a lot, but it looks like Texas will be home for a while.

Grew up in Lexington, Kentucky. Though 100% of my family is from Middlesborough, Kentucky and all the sports they ever got was UT!

Born in Black Mountain NC, but Dad was born in Cleveland (Tenn., not Ohio) so I got Tennessee roots, I guess.
I love Chattanooga. Great town. May retire near there soon.

Born and raised in Virginia, surrounded by Hokie fans but I turned out a VOl fan (because of the stadium, the orange, the SEC, the NAVY, 98, Tennessee River, Rocky Top, Manning, checkerboards, John Ward). I loved in the VA, but I recently moved to Tennessee. HUGE vol fan.
