First Tennessee football game you attended

[VolBricks]

I am not sure the year, but I remember my dad and I going to the grocery store and purchasing tickets for the game. I would guess that game was in the early 70's before 1978. I remember dad telling me (later) it was an Ole Miss game. My parents passed away a long time ago so I can't ask him/them.

1968 versus Alabama. Sitting in the north endzone. Good guys won 10-9. Tennessee (maybe Jimmy Weatherford) blocked a late field goal attempt to preserve the win.

Oh my goodness. How could I forget 1!/15/1969 in Jackson Mississippi at the "Archie Who" game. Maybe because I choose to block it out of my memory. Four went from Memphis with tickets that were given to us.....all I could see in any direction was rebel flags.
