Let me break out the way back machine.

1990. 45-3. Dale Carter returning the second half kickoff. The whole stadium doing a mock chomp. How crazy is it that they were our homecoming game that year?!

1992. 31-14 Heath Shuler to Mose Phillips in a deluge. Crowd cheered thunder claps. Good times

Yes, but you are more than welcome to join in, as long as you give us your favorite memories of Tennessee victories in Vols-Gators matches.

You know, things like "I escaped the stadium with Rocky Top ringing in my ears and finally found solitude in the parking lot," or "I got so drunk that night I don't even remember my wife pouring me into bed. Missed the family reunion the next day."

Things like that are good. :)

Yeah, I gotta throw in with that one too. That was so fun. Hard to believe 27 years have scooted by since then, even faster than Dale Carter!

The moment everyone was waiting for when Eric Berry met Tebow at the line of scrimmage by the goal line. Unstoppable force stopped by the Immovable object.

2004 - I wanted to impress my then-girlfriend (now wife) by taking her to a big-time UT game. It was her first experience in a college stadium bigger than 40,000 people. I think I succeeded. To this day, she has never seen UT lose in Neyland, and we've been to several games in which we were the underdogs (2004 Florida, 2006 Cal, 2013 South Carolina to name a few). UT should pay for us to go to games.

2016, sitting in the stadium at half time thinking about the 6 hr drive home after taking another loss to FL.

2nd half was amazing, people went crazy in stadium after Jennigs caught the long td pass.

Living in FL when we won the NC, down the street from a guy who had his house painted Gator blue and orange.

Couldn't keep a magnetic Power T on the back of our SUV when parked at restaurant parking lots, kept getting removed.

2001 and 2016

Dec 1, 2001 - oldest sons first bday, and big vol win.

2016 - fifteen years later, me and 2 sons in the stands for a 12 year curse breaker, in epic 2nd half comeback fashion.

Same game. In 2004 me and my wife invited her best friend (Her best friend was and still is a smoke show) and her best friend's husband to their first UT game. Other than a UF fan throwing a beer on my 7 1/2 month pregnant wife, it was a great time. And by coincidence, her best friend gave birth to her first child 9 months later!

Many favorites to choose from but I would have to say our Gator bowl trip in 69 and really had nothing to do with appreciating the game or who won. I was a snot nosed, zit faced 16 yr old and Dad surprised us all with an early Christmas present by telling us We were going. We picked up my best friend, which also happened to be my cousin in Mobile(yeah, probably a joke or two in that ). Playing football with the other kids on the field before the game was special I'm sure but back in those days, it wasn't that big a deal just like We had done at Neyland in early 60's and football games out in front of Stokely....anyway, aging myself but back in the day it was so different.
