Fans who left early, how do you feel now?

This was when things looked hopeless and Tennessee was down 22-9.
Obviously this tweet didn’t age well.

Nah, nobody was leaving the stadium - they just went to fill up the beer to drown their sorrows in.

I was thinking the same thing.

Couple by me left early because the d-bag fans in front of us.

Are you talking about d-bag Indiana fans?

 

[utvolpj]

Plenty were headed for the exits. Even my son said he wanted to see how it ended. Thankfully my bvs was overridden by his youthful optimism

Unfortunately, no.

Probably felt like those fans who left after the 4th down play failed against Arky with 2 mins to go in 1998...

Don’t ever leave a game when there is at least a chance of the Vols coming back. I’ve seen so many Vol comebacks in football and basketball

I'm thinking this may have been more of a beer refill time. Especially those to the left in the club section......I'll admit that the Jax club is super nice (has to be otherwise no one would go to a Jax game down here). No one left in my section.....we were hugging and high fiving the entire 4th quarter. Great group of Vol Fans!!!!

Agree with this... our section stayed the entire game also. I did have a few more bathroom trips than usual during timeouts because of the all day festivities.

I stayed to see the Stoerner fumble and then watch Jamal Lewis run it down Army's throats for 5 straight plays.

It's the first time I ever left Neyland chanting "We're #1" with around 104,000 close friends.

We were on the first row behind UT bench.

Nobody left our area but I was embarrassed by (UT) folks behind us. They were sloppy drunk, four letter words and spilled beer all over my 9yr old niece and sister n law numerous times.

 

[DocVOLiday]

we definitely had some leave when we went down by 13 and then there were quite a few Indiana fans that left when we took the lead

 

[vol94]

We thought game was over but.....that’s why you have to play 60 minutes.

Wasn't Lewis. It was Travis Henry.

They were trying to get back in. I know a couple fellas that ran by the security to get back in.

I have to admit, had one in my party not needed to stop at the restroom I'd have missed the fumble. I was soaked to the point of wringing out my socks

 

[BigOrangeMojo]

Started the shower at halftime, I'm 31 not dead, I wasn't in a hurry to get back to the game, came out for Jennings last run. I dont need to brag.

So, we were up 3 points when you started your escapades and ended up 1 point AND YOU WANT TO TAKE CREDIT.....

 

[terrypedigo]

The way we were moving the ball in the second half i might have left with them, didn't see the comeback coming.

We’re they blue hairs who didn’t like standers?

Nothing like quenching your sorrow with a lukewarm $12 Yuengling!

 

[FLVOL_79]

My friend sent me a text with a shot of some Tennessee fan crying in the stands after the clock struck 0. While a little bit scary..I bet thats how the fans leaving felt..part despair, part rage, part happiness, and part DOH.
