To all the UT fans still proudly displaying...

[vols40]

The only Tennessee thing I ever "got rid of" was my 98 Fiesta Bowl national champions shirt...it was ingested into an air conditioner in my tent in the middle east during an Afghanistan deployment.

First off thank you for your service.

Go Vols

 

[peerless98]

I wear orange every week, especially on game day. When we beat Florida and Alabama I wear it everyday, all weak.

all strong!

 

[Boca Vol]

Hell I bought a new license plate cover back in the Summer hoping it would change our luck. So much for that. But my car looks better though.

 

[volbound1700]

I still wear my UT stuff. Not sure why you wouldn't stop wearing it just because the football team stinks.

 

[VolsSince78]

Honestly, I forgot I had my power T on the front of the truck. Do I still get "loyal fan" status?

Heck Yeah, as long as you keep the Power T on your truck now that you remember it's there.

 

[BigOrangeAl 1979]

Took my front bumper power T off, still got my bumper hitch cover power T on though, living in Bama it used to anger the bammers so much when we were winning and good and put 7 in a row on them now they just feel sorry for me it sucks.

 

[greenbacknative]

Still have my Tennessee plate on out in Utah even after the BYU game....

 

[jonnon111]

I just thought we b!tched in here, I didn't think anyone was really burning their fan card. I'm never going to stop wearing UT gear. Watch, tie, shirts, club head covers (my golf gAme sucks so it's appropriate) car magnet, key ring, bottle opener, front yard flag etc.
I get harassed every Monday at work. Part of being a fan I thought. Because one day. . .

...their Power T front license plates, their Orange TriStars, their interlocking UTs, their UT Alumni, their Longhunter VOLS decals and all the other myriad Big Orange logos on their vehicles -- this Bud's For You!

I was out running errands this weekend in beautiful and prosperous Williamson County and was struck by how many of us, including myself, still proudly proclaim ourselves UT fans, amid a sea of bandwagoneers with Sissy As and Flattened Gs and all the rest adorning their vehicles in this melting-pot suburb of corporate relocatees.

We're down but we're not out. It's still OUR State. If I had the wherewithal, I'd buy all you VFLs a craft beer of your choice -- or at least a Bud.

I used to get lip from coworkers...always talking smack about Tennessee. I enjoyed it.

Now all I get is looks of pity and shallow words of encouragement. You know you’ve hit rock bottom when Maryland fans take pity on you.

I was in a small town outside of Austin, TX this past weekend wearing my Orange and ran into a young lady wearing a Vols shirt in Walmart. She was from Florida, a UTK grad (not UT Austin - they don't know the difference here), and moved to TX for work.

[monk91384]

This inspired me to order some new plates for all our cars !

 

[kiddiedoc]

Maybe we're all just REALLY excited for basketball season.

Honestly reason most of it's still on vehciles is PITA to take off I'd guess

 

[superdave1984]

You support your team regardless of how well they play. End of story. You want better when they stink up the stadium, but you still support the guys playing the game.

 

[TennMan101]

There are hundreds, if not thousands, of UT fans in the Tampa/Orlando area. I live there for approximately 5 years and seen at least one UT fan on a daily basis, especially in Orlando.

 

[bray2milton]

Y’all already know I am bumping that Power T on the back of the Wrangler!

 

[rockingchairvol]

Proudly drive in Georgia with my Tennessee vanity tag. go Vols

I have a orange T magnet in Alabama on the back of my truck and I am little over a hour away form Tuscaloosa.

 

[derekewhitlock]

As crazy as it sounds, I am wearing more orange now than normal. Truly great fan bases never run from who they are.... never, we will be back!!

And that same loyalty has gotten us where we . When Alabama or Florida have struggles their fans send a message to the administration and demand change and they get it and look where those programs are. We have sucked for years and we go around patting ourselves on the back bragging about what good volunteer fans we are while the program goes in the tank.

I was drinking a beer from my Power T coozie at a bar in Augusta last week. Caught a little flak from some young Georgia fans. Reminded them that their last national title was closer to WWII than today. That shut them up, and actually ended up having a pretty good conversation about what it was like to be in the stands and watch your team win a championship. Turned out to be ok guys, just excited they have a good team right now.
