Story time: Remember when? Dobbnail Boot

I was watching in a random bar in Biloxi. When we were just up on UGA, my friend said, it looks like UT has it in the bag, and I corrected him and said, "It's TN, they never have it completely won." Then Eason drops a bomb.

I finished my drink and said, "It would be crazy if we make this Hail Mary." Boom. Me and the few random unbiased bar patrons immediately jumped out of our seats and were like "holy s**t"

I just loved the split connection to these random people in the bar that happened to just be watching a random football game.

I think it's Dobbsnail Boot just to throw it back at the UGA fans and that typically awful call by Munson back in 2001. Now we're even....answered the Hobbnail with a Dobbsnail.

You'd be correct. I guess because he had to roll out it fits.

These worked, but sometimes it's different. I don't know why. Next time it happens I'll post it in the help forum for you.

Mine does that on mobile sometimes but I just click back and click it again and then it works. Don't know why but it does.

I love how we call it Doobnail Boot when it was a hail mary. Should be an original name.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! It MUST remain the Dobbnail Boot game! Why? Anybody that is a Vol fan that has had to spend any time in Georgia during football season hears over and over on every rado station Larry Munson announcing the last second UGA win over UT concerning them putting a hobbnail boot in UT's face and pushing in their noses. UGA fans call that win the Hobbnail Boot game. We now have the Dobbnail Boot game, couldn't be a better rebuttal, dawg fans are already exiting with their tails tucked. LOL

I would think we have enough to rub in with a more recent Natty.

I've been to a lot of Vols game but I doubt any will stick out in my mind quite like this one for as long as I live. Every other year I fly from Colorado to Athens for this game and am lucky enough to have some VERY generous GA fans as friends who have a skybox suite.

They invite me to join them in the box every year and it's always me and one other Vols fan who's from GA who's dad has access to the box. Sometimes I think they let me in the box just so they can gang up on me. They're as gracious and hospitable as can be, but it always comes with endless jabs and $hit talking. It's all in good fun if they win. But you can feel the daggers when the big orange whips dey azz.

But this one...this one sent them into a new realm of hatred for the vols, I suspect permanently. You could see it and sense it in every one of their eyes. They wanted me dead. Something about losing that way to Butch really crushed their souls if I'm being honest. For them, the Butch factor added insult to injury. They'd been bagging on him, rightfully so at that point, the whole weekend.

When they win, they stay till security throws them outta their box. The previous game in Athens I had to suffer through an hour and a half of the whitest dance party you've ever seen with them drunkenly blaring Gangnam Style on repeat. It was a close game and I just wanted to get the eff outta there but nope. Here, we're gonna rub it in your face and look at you the whole time while we gloat to gangnam style.

No revenge has ever tasted as sweet to me as the Dobbnail Boot. Never in my life have I truly enjoyed 80,000 people's misery. But they'd started the party not a minute before JJ pulled that $hit down. The whole stadium had already cued up whatever $hitty song had replaced gangnam style. The best part? Their box is directly above the Pride of the Southland Band. You couldn't hear $hit besides Rocky Top. Goooooood ollllllld Rocky Top! Rocky Top Tenn-e-sseeeeeeee!!!!

My 1st big win was the Miracle. Some things I forget. I hope I never forget that.

Go Vols!

Living here in Georgia, and close to Athens, this is one of my favorite stories!

This was the game that convinced my wife that I was a lunatic. The emotional roller coaster that was this game was a great ride and I look forward to showing my future children this game in their crash course on becoming a Vol fan.
