I live 10 mins away from the stadium and have my whole life, I have been a fan from as long as I can remember. I have never been a student at UT but that doesn't mean that an alumni of UT is any more of a fan than I am. I've been to lots of games and have supported them through thick and thin. If it were only former alumni and current alumni the we would have a bunch of fans sitting on their a** afraid to be to loud so they won't disturb there neighbor sitting next to them.

Translation from Bamaspeak = Non-alumni redneck fans that treat the team like their local pro sports team

Sidewak alumni = Stood on sidewalk instead of participating in the parade

neck = redneck

Oh I see, well I guess I am a sidewalk alumni neck. I would have loved more than anything in this world to have been an official UT student or alumni. But alot of us never made it off the farm so being just a "dirt road " fan is as close as we can get.
I live and die with UT Football so it's just as important to me as any alumni. It's my escape from the real world. Alot of us in our small corners of our great state with our thick southern accents maybe looked down upon as uneducated hicks but we have love for UT. but we all have a common bond that's why I love it!!

What is a former alumni and current alumni? Either way you are not a true fan without a diploma.

Shut up and quit trying to be an elitist. Anyone who cheers for the orange and white is a true fan. That's all it takes. :crazy:

So what u are saying is that all of us devout UT fans did not get a degree from UT are not true fans?

That's completely not true. What would that make UT students that don't care at all about Vol sports?

I bet I'd rather watch a game with you than him, degree or no degree.

You rednecks are so defensive.

I kid, I kid.

Fans like you guys are the reason I love going to games. I enjoy watching people shout their head off almost as much as the game. When I'm not busy shouting my head off, that is.

Since when did being UT alumni have anything to do with being a "True" fan? Last I checked, they don't ask to see your degree before you're allowed to be a fan.

I graduated from Tennessee in the fall of 2008 and that's the dumbest thing I've seen posted on here.

While an alumni certainly has a different perspective of campus, the athletic department doesn't care if the money they receive comes from an alum or a "sidewalk" guy.

:lol:

What about guys that go to schools like Ohio State with MUCH better football teams than ours currently, but are still Tennessee fans anyway? Seems like that would take more stones than just going for your school...

So does that make you a ____ because you only have a bachelors degree? It's makes about as much sense as the point your trying to make about Vol fans.

I expect a report when you make that coveted first trip to Neyland. Do you have plans in the near future to make it to a game?
