This is probably preaching to the choir here.
But I really hope that the non participant type fans will sell or give their tickets to Vol fans that will:
stand the whole game
scream the whole game
jingle their keys and pound the bleachers the whole game.

We all know that There are some casual Vol fans that go to the games primarily for the social element. To see and be seen.
And for a lot of games, that’s ok.
But not this upcoming game. Not this TSIO.
For this game we need the loudest, most obnoxious, BASTIDGES around to be there and give their All for Tennessee.
Make the CBS folks and other national media say it’s the most raucous crowd they’ve ever witnessed.
GO LARGE ORANGE!!! Beat Bama! Storm the field! Take down the goalposts and put them in the River! Show the world that WE ARE BACK.

Go large orange?

Large orange???

Are you an alien trying to blend in?
Large Orange is often used by older Vols, such as myself, instead of always saying Go Big Orange. John Ward would use it occasionally.

Telling other fans how to behave is never good form.
I should be flogged. Next thing people here will tell people how to vote and to pray for them. Imagine someone asking for a rowdy crowd on a football message board. Imagine. I should be flogged and then shot. Please send me your thoughts and prayers for such a terrible transgression. I’m not worthy of the oxygen I breathe. Feel better?

I know. I’m just fired up about the game and REALLY want the win.
People, of course, have every right to go to the game and not even cheer or yell if they’d like or stay on their cell phones if football doesn’t interest them.

Let me take exception with one thing here: People in the upper deck should NOT stand up during the game.

Fans up there used to sit the whole time and stomp both feet the entire game and it was absolutely deafening.

For some reason this stopped somewhere around the early 90s.

I'm telling you, the level of noise at other games I've been to does not compare to back when people did this. It echoes throughout the stadium and is unlike anything you've heard in Neyland.

Somebody that tweets should work on a campaign to bring this back.

I remember sitting on the lower deck while this was happening and I couldn't even hear the person sitting beside me.

I've only been to one game, but, it was during that time. The entire stadium seemed to shake. Scared me. 😁

Loud or quiet, stomping or sitting, red-faced or composed, here's what I prefer: that the bleachers be filled with fans who were true to the Vols through the Dark Ages, who supported every lad in orange and every coach who tried, even those who weren't up to the task. Fans who never wavered in their support for the Tennessee Volunteers, not even in the worst of years. Not even in 2012. Not even in 2017. Not even in 2020.

That's who I'd like to see sitting in Neyland Cathedral on Saturday. That's who deserves to be there. Thanks for all of you who kept the faith through our decade of trial and tribulation.

Go Vols!

There are many fans like myself with bad backs who can't stand the entire game. Only for a few minutes here and there. I'm sure people with knee issues are the same way.
Understandable. I’ve had that knee problem at certain church services that have a great deal of standing and kneeling.
Your health is more important than a football game. Yell loud, though. Lol.

I’d love to follow the directive of the OP, but I promised my cousin I would help him wax his corvette after taking the wheels off and putting the skirt on my new house.

yeah, noise will be hard enough for Young...if he doesn't go, #4 will have all sorts of problems. Plow those recruits in...let's convert a few. Maybe we'll sneak another 5000 fans or so into the building
