I'm in the Air France lounge in the Paris airport talking Vol football. I walked by someone wearing a Power T and struck up a conversation. I didn't expect to see another Vol fan here :)

I met a German guy in Germany that had a power T in his back glass of his Benz. His daughter was attending UT at the time. Then there was Howard's bar in Kariya City, Japan near to Denso HQ. You would think it was right outside of Neyland with all of the UT stuff all over the walls.

Sadly if that had been me I probably wouldn't have recognized him if I'm being honest. I would have just been like "Go Vols, man!"

Denso has quite a presence in East TN, so that doesn't surprise me one bit! Denso isn't in my part of Japan, though, so I get quite lonely representing out here!

Met fellow Vols fans on a ferry crossing Clyde river in Scotland, also on a day boat off Santorini in Greece. World wide fans ready to talk Vols.

Stood next to a guy last night in Phoenix airport with a smokey logo hat on. I said Go Vols and he just kinda looked at me startled and said yeah. Zero conversation. Kind of weird as most Vol fans are glad to converse with other Vols

I worked for the Navy on a lil island in Indonesia (Timor Leste-look it up on a map-in the middle of nowhere). Walked into a store and saw a lady with a power T purse. She was from Knoxville teaching at an international school.

Several years back, I was hiking around Arenal, Costa Rica and I saw some people wearing some orange on the trail. They in return saw my Vols hat. We stopped and talked about how we were robbed at the end of the music city bowl and how Dooley seemed to be turning things around. Boy, were we wrong.

I graduated from UT and live in Ireland now. Recently, I went up to a guy in the London Heathrow airport who was wearing a power T shirt and said "Go Vols" and we high fived. I've also seen a Lady Vols sticker on a car in Oxford England.
