As some of you may know my family bleeds Orange.  To be more specific, Tennessee Volunteer Orange.  This past weekend my oldest son , Joseph, and I were invited to a Big Orange weekend.  We were the guest of Mr. Jim Mauer and his wife Kay, owners of the Zartic Food Co. in Rome GA.  They put us up at the Knoxville Marriot then took us to dinner at a local steakhouse called The Copper Cellar.  The room was nice....the dinner was awesome.  The next day we were treated to an Executive Skybox view of the Tennessee / Kentucky football game. 

I think it is safe to say that a good time was had by all.  While we may not have gotten the true college football atmosphere of the screaming fans, the smell of various spilled beverages, and the repeated playing of Rocky Top by The Pride of the Southland Band, there is definately something to be said of watching your favorite team play from 7 stories above the field in theater seats from a climate controlled booth with a wait staff and all the free food and beverages your gut can hold.  WHEW!

By the way, Tennessee won the game by 5 points in front of an estimated crowd of around
104,000.   What a way to initiate my oldest son to his first Tennessee Game. 

See Ya'll  - Tony

ps..  Next time its Jakes turn...(right Jake?)

Sounds like an Rx for a good time to me!!

Y'all sound like my sis 'n law up in Ohio - they're Buckeyes and all that...........it's difficult to be around them when the games are on............
