Club level in the opposite end zone. Couldn't see what happened but sure could hear Rocky Top and could see all the Dawgs fans drooling in their bourbon. Since UGA was too butt hurt to show a replay on the jumbo tron, I didn't see it till my buddy and I were eating afterwards. Helluva final 3:00.

I was in my living room watching when he caught it but the pandemonium caused the party to be carried to my yard at a full yelling sprint

I was on the toilet. I had ribs on the grill that I had let go for a little bit too long just so I could see the final seconds of the game, and when Georgia threw their final touchdown, I got mad and went outside to take the ribs off the grill, assuming it was over, and then when I came back in I went to use the bathroom and missed the Hail Mary.

I'll spare yall of the boring details of me sitting at home watching the game but there is a really good chance I may have a son or daughter in 9 months. Anyone think Jauan is an inappropriate name for a girl?

In my house in south central rural Missouri (no where really) needing to get ready for work, but putting it off. Stormed back in living room determined not to give up on my vols after fit from GA score. When catch was caught, woke up sleeping hubby screaming. And I was late for work with all the celebrating. Who cares, go vols!

Was in Athens Visiting my brother. He is getting his Phd down there. His girlfriend works in a hospital down there with nothing but UGA grads. They had a house party, 2 torpedo kegs, wings, liquor the whole nine. They had about 15 UGA fans show up but we came prepared. There were twelve of us down there. We got a little premature and starting celebrating after the Foreman int, singing rocky top and so on. They gave it back to us pretty good and sung rocky top back to us when Eason through the td. All I remember after that was my 53 year old dad jumping in my arms and I'm holding him line I do my three year old son and shot gunning a beer and shooting a shot of George Dickel followed by a Jack Daniels chaser and partying well into the morning.

Section 121. I was on the other side of the stadium. We couldn't really see what had happened during the end of the play. I could see Dobbs throw the bomb but I couldn't confirm we had won until they changed the score on the jumbo from and the refs ran off the field. I kept looking for a flag or a replay. They didn't replay it at all on the jumbo tron cause they were butt hurt I guess. I had to find it on my phone to see what had happened. It was an amazing day in Athens, GA. I will never forget it.

I was watching the game from my place in Florida and was messaging with my friend who is British and she was watching the game from London England. By the way this was only the second American Football game that she has ever watched in her life with the UT-UF game the week before being her first.

Here is our chat starting from right before the Georgia TD.

I saw not one of our scores. I had gone to fridge in the garage to grab a brew, so I was forced to go outside and watch from my deck through the kitchen window. Your welcome !! GoVols!

Left the restaurant after my grandmother's 90th birthday dinner when uga got their last touchdown. We turned on the radio for the 20 minute drive home (don't know why I wanted to put myself through that).

I got to watch my husband's reaction to hearing Tim Priest screaming after Jennings caught the Hail Mary. Hands down, one of the best moments I've ever experienced as a Vol fan. Watching how happy he was is something I'll never forget.

I was following my superstition of what makes the Vols win. I have to start out at 9:00 with Gameday, keep the TV on til our game starts. Watch until we begin losing.

Then I have to go outside and do something constructive. Can't listen on radio. Just work. Wash the car, yard work, etc.

There always are outside watching parties all over the neighborhood so I hear cheering when anything good happens and I go in and can watch if we're ahead. Go back down and I have to go back to work.

The whole neighborhood erupted in cheers, horns honking, firecrakers. I run inside to find that, once again, I have positively affected the outcome of a Vols game this year. Thank you very much! :)))
I've kinda got the same thing going myself. I watched the first 3 games in its entirety while throwing back some adult beverages even though I got very frustrated at times cussing and whatnot...but deer season opened up weekend before last so I have a calming place to go now. Last year as uga went up on us big I left to go hunting all the while listening to Kesling on the radio and just keeping faith we could pull out the upset and we did. This year my strategy for the Florida and Georgia game has been the same...watch it as long as I can contain my composure until my head pops off then go hunting and keep updated from the radio and my phone. During the catch I was sitting under a tree watching a 6 point buck feed in the back of a field not really planning on shooting it. My friend a KY fan text me saying y'all are lucky as hell after the stripped fumble TD. I responded saying maybe we can hold on. I kept refreshing ESPN.com following the game closely as I could but service kept going in and out on me. I refreshed and got so angry seeing they scored on a 47 yd bomb with 10 seconds to go. I was mad to say the least but accepted we had lost our first game. So shortly after I refreshed again and saw final score TN 34 UGA 31... I literally could not believe my eyes!! I thought it had to be a mistake. My friend text me saying I had missed the game of the year! So I went crazy scared the deer out of the field and everything but I didn't care lol. I was told when I got home that I'd have to start going hunting earlier lol.

In my living room with my dad who doesn't even root for any team. He went to Miss St though. I am a passive aggressive fan which means I let go of my emotions in intense bursts after go ahead scores and the like. I didn't celebrate anything until the sack-fumble TD. I turned into a freaking gorilla after UT won on the hail mary.

In my car driving home from a business trip. Saw the scores on my phone and then finally found the game on the radio right after we took the lead at 28-24. Listened as Georgia moved across mid-field and scored with :10 left and then lost radio reception.

Thought we had lost but then looked at my phone about 10 minutes later and saw Tenn 34 UGA 31 and about ran off the road. Got home and saw the highlights and watched them over and over. :rock:

Youtube has a copy of the game without commercials. Takes a little over 2 hours but this will allow you to watch it quickly. I'd recommend fast forwarding to the 3rd quarter!:dance2:

I was driving to a lake in Show Low, AZ and was following the game on ESPN's little fake football field. Knew the score was 28-24 for UT when I left the cabin. Stopped at a light and did a quick check. 31-28 for UGA, but didn't realize how much time was left or where the ball was exactly. I figured OT on a FG. Spent the next 20 mins not knowing what happened. Got to the lake and checked my phone. Then had to double check the score a few times to make sure UT had won.
