So the plan is that after every Tennessee football win, the new sculpture on the pedestrian mall, known to students as the Victory Onion, is going to be rolled in toilet paper. This thing is hideous and this way it will at least serve some purpose, plus it will be fun. Student or not, if your at the game Saturday, after Tennessee puts a 50 spot on the Hilltoppers, come to the middle of campus, just above the amphitheater and join the party!!! Just be sure to bring a roll of toilet paper.

I think it should be filled with beer cans and jack bottles. Saran wrap he outside and fill it up. Then bash that horrible thing that is a neon star.

Talked to some administration and they said someone donated $250,000 to academics and put that there. Everyone thought it would be a nice ellagant fountain. WRONG

Great, now Auburn fans are going to say we copied them. Can't we come up with something original!

I'm going with no. Have you seen the original stuff we do at the bball games when the opposing starters are introduced?

I dont care what Auburn people say, a mound full of toilet paper will look 354% better than what it looks like right now.

Thats obviously while it was being installed, since then they have added 3 big yellow plastic bulbs and a huge yellow plastic star.

Wow I haven't been down the pedestrian mall yet this semester because all of my classes are near the hill.....that is ridiculous!!! Totally destroys the mall. It looked great beforehand, one of the nicer parts of campus. Modern art is BS! Freakin liberals on campus are killing me!!

Thank you!!!!!! Students, Please Don't!! Good grief. We have plenty of traditions already. Ones that are ours....

Is that supposed to be the intestinal tract of a certain former, semi-retired coach? :popcorn:

Dude this is happening. Its a good thing no one listened to people like you when someone suggested we run through the T for the first time, or when another person had the crazy idea that our players should walk to the stadium like Ole Miss does, or put a T on the side of the helmets instead of numbers, since thats what alot of other schools do, or maybe have the band march to the stadium kinda like Auburn (which by the way totally kicks our bands arse, its so awesome having 4 different parts of the band start at the same time marching to one location from 4 spots on campus and then meeting right outside the stadium to march in together.)

Oh, and last time I checked no one in the country covered the rollercoaster on Moron Mountain from Space Jame in toilet paper after they won a game. . .

Doubt the evil liberals had much to do with that one... they usually have more taste than that. That thing was selected to be put on campus in 2005, and they guy who donated it owns a chain of hotels.

Now the arrogant stance of the donor and the artist that only people educated in the arts can appreciate it properly is completely ridiculous... whatever the statement may be(apparently it's progress), there has to be a consideration of the location when placing a sculpture... and they really bombed on that one. Sticking a piece of modern art on the pedestrian mall was a stupid idea, and just looks unsettling.

Every sculpture on campus doesn't have to be of a guy playing football, but at least make it fit in to it's surroundings. We all have to look at it.

Congrats by the way, you probably just guaranteed that there will be at least 10 UTPD camped next to that thing after every game.
